Described by The Independent as "the most sought-after ballerina in the world," hailed by The Guardian as "a supernatural tour de force," and praised by The New York Times for "Many Giselles, but only one Osipova," Royal Ballet principal dancer Natalia Osipova brings her unparalleled artistry to the Monterey Peninsula for a rare appearance presented by Carmel Dance Festival.

Audiences will experience Force of Nature — Osipova's acclaimed program that offers an intimate showcase of her extraordinary range and star power.

The evening weaves together an electrifying mix of classical and contemporary works — including her celebrated interpretation of Giselle and the iconic The Dying Swan — alongside pieces by today's most sought-after choreographers, performed with distinguished guest artists from around the world.
