13th April 1966, Western Theatre Ballet Sadler's Wells

The action takes place in a Cornish village in autumn on the
eve of its yearly carnival. Violent in places, sombre, orgiastic,
strident, pulsating, powerful and towards the end claustrophobic.
This was the first British three-act ballet on a contemporary
theme since the war, and Peter Darrell's first three-act ballet.
