About this Event
Gustavia
Director: Guillaume Klein
Choreographer: Pär Isberg
(France, 2025) 118 minutes
Live Performance Capture, Ballet
Based on a remarkable true story, Gustavia is a visually stunning performance capture of the Royal Swedish Opera’s production about Gustav Badin, an enslaved child brought to the Swedish royal court who grew into a dancer, diplomat, and Freemason. With commanding performances by Guillaume Diop and choreography by Pär Isberg, this sweeping production blends ballet, theater, and history to examine identity, power, and cultural erasure. Set to a rich score by Brahms, Bologne, and Beethoven, Gustavia resurrects a hidden figure of European history with elegance, fire, and depth.
