Scottish Ballet Prepares for Twice-Born Program

This autumn, Scottish Ballet prepares for Twice-Born, a double bill featuring works by Dickson Mbi and Cayetano Soto.

Of note, Mbi’s world premiere commission – the program’s title piece – is set to music the choreographer composed himself. The Olivier Award-winning artist is the first Creative Associate of Scottish Ballet’s Next Generation Campaign, a program which endeavors to produce ten new works by early-mid career dance makers by 2028.

“Dickson has inspired and collaborated with Scottish Ballet’s dancers for this ambitious new production. His unique movement style, and ability to imbue his work with a deep connection to his own personal experiences, will deliver a visceral and exciting dance spectacle for audiences, and this World Premiere will be a pivotal moment for the whole company.”
Christopher Hampson

Artistic Director and CEO of Scottish Ballet

Spanish-born Soto’s Schachmatt (Checkmate) opens the evening (its UK premiere) a work whose ground is a chessboard and whose movement and costuming carry an equestrian aesthetic.
