With Oleg Vinogradov , the Artistic Director, and dancers and teachers of the Kirov Ballet and the Vaganova Ballet School. Producers Derek Bailey and Julia Matheson
0 PERFORMANCE: the Kirov
Ballet Company, featuring many of the dancers in this programme, will be touring England, visiting

Spike Ambrose Spike Ambrose and Clinton Smith both live in a hostel for homeless teenagers in London's run-down King's Cross area.

Starring
Richard Thomas Ernest Borgnine
1914: a class of German schoolboys is urged by their idealistic teacher to fulfil their patriotic duty: to go to war and win a glorious victory. But what awaits them is the blood, filth and agony of real war, from which many will not return. This tough, unromantic story of the effect of war on ordinary people is the second version of Erich Maria Remarque 's famous anti-war novel.
Director Delbert Mann
