Giselle's costume fitting
Tulle, fabris, lace and embrouderies invaded our headquarters.
Each day, Joaquín De Luz’s vision of a Spanish Giselle comes more to life.
Peasants and town neighbours of our protagonist, Prince Albretch’s court who’ll drag Giselle to her grave and the furious willis that’ll welcome her on the after life, keep getting shaped and coloured. Here we leave a teaser of what’s to come from incredible costume designer Rosa García Andújar.
Andújar and the team of Sartoria D’Inzillo came for the first costume fitting of our new grand production.
Don’t miss it from the 9th to the 22nd of December at Teatro de la Zarzuela.

Meet our dancers: Álvaro Madrigal
Álvaro Madrigal, Sevillian by birth, is a versatile dancer. He is not pigeonholed as a classical dancer or a contemporary dancer, which allows him to enjoy the entire repertoire of the National Dance Company.
Álvaro respects classical dance a lot to define himself as a classical dancer and the same with respect to contemporary dance. He defines himself as an emotional dancer, someone who needs to feel something when he is dancing.
