RegisterBased on the true story of legendary ballerina, Marie Taglioni - the first woman to go “en pointe.” As the legend goes, after she retired, her pointe shoes were bought by a fan, then cooked at a lavish dinner party and served to 35 guests. It is a surreal, comical romp through the party evening.
Created in partnership with the English National Ballet and featuring 20 of their dancers alongside a principal cast of actors and dancers, including Alessandra Ferri and Antonia Franceschi, ''An Evening with Taglioni'' is a fantastically fun short independently produced with support from Arts Council England.
This short film was part of a past San Francisco Dance Film Festival season. Tune in this October to see select films from the 2024 festival.
