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: Erez Ilan
Erez Ilan, a shy but passionate ballet dancer, has been a part of the Compañía Nacional de Danza’a (CND) dance team since 2008; an opportunity extended to him by Nacho Duato, then CND director. Starting at a very young age, Ilan trained at The School of Ice Skating and Ballet and at The Thelma-Yellin High School of Arts, both in his native Israel. At 18, he took the leap and crossed the Mediterranean to explore Europe and to work at the CND. His dedication and talent paid off, earning him a place as soloist in 2017, a role he holds to this day, marking both a personal triumph for himself and the CND directorship’s validation of his work.
