MAYERLING

Ryoichi Hirano and Natalia Osipova star as the doomed Crown Prince Rudolf and Baroness Mary Vetsera, in this season-launching revival of Kenneth MacMillan’s dark-as-night masterpiece. The fantastic Francesca Hayward makes her debut as Vetsera later in the run (November 25 and 30) – a fascinating proposition. Certainly, for anyone who considers ballet too frou-frou for their liking, this 1978 tragedy is a remorselessly gripping rebuttal. Royal Opera House, London WC2 (roh.org. uk), WedsNov 30
