Ballet Nights, Spring Tour

Ballet Nights is a touring dance gala built around a continually changing programme, with each venue requiring the show to be restructured and rebuilt in response to new acts, staging, and technical conditions. Touring across the UK, including the Manchester Opera House, no fixed version of the production carried between locations. As Deputy Stage Manager, I worked alongside the Technical Director to re-establish the show in each venue, rebuilding cue structure and maintaining consistency across an evolving programme of ballet, contemporary, and operatic work. This required adapting cueing methods between score-led and track-based material, while responding to performers’ timing to maintain clarity and flow within a compressed schedule.
