Review: Royal Ballet & Opera Presents Jette Parker Artists in "Tales of Love and Loss"

Ana Inés Jabares-Pita's set feels familiar and clearly defines time and place: The Departure remains in the 1960s; Making Arrangements moves into the 1970s, where a woman could choose to live independently; Four Sisters is in the materialistic 1980s, where 'greed is good'. The changes of style in the music are notable, from the almost folk-style melodies of The Departure to the discordance of Making Arrangements and the patchwork of Four Sisters�'all in all, an enjoyable evening highlighting women creators and changing social attitudes.
