Les Ballets de Monte-Carlo concluded its season with a weekend engagement of Ma Bayadère at the Ludwigsburg Festival. Choreographed by Jean-Christophe Maillot, the production served as the company’s final performance before entering its summer break.
The staging presented a contemporary reimagining of the classic narrative, featuring geometric stage design and dynamic partner work that highlighted the company's ensemble. The performances in Ludwigsburg marked the official conclusion of the troupe's touring schedule for the season.
