In this adaptation of Franz Kafka’s Metamorphosis, Gregor Samsa’s transformation into a giant cockroach is expressed through fluid movement and echoed musicality. The whole performance, including the dance sequences, stage movements, special effects and lighting were amazingly choreographed. Edward Watson’s performance of Gregor epitomized a transformation from an average business man to a grotesque insect. The stage started out as a blank canvas but took new life transforming into a layered piece. This production took on a separate identity from Kafka’s tale as it placed more emphasis on the Samsa family’s view of the ordeal, than that of the story in which we are within Gregor’s mind. The Royal Ballet Production did a splendid job in providing its audience with an interesting view and perspective on the piece.
