International Intensive Summer School !! We welcome works from The Cranko Estate, an amazing learning opportunity for 16-21yrs vocational students.

John Cranko was born on 15th August 1927 in Rustenburg, South Africa. He received his dance education mainly at the University of Cape Town and in 1946 he continued his studies at the Sadler's Wells School in London and shortly afterwards became a member of the Sadler's Wells Ballet (subsequently The Royal Ballet). (photo: Hannes Kilian, Stuttgart) From 1949 on he devoted himself exclusively to choreography, producing extremely successful ballets - mostly for the Sadler's Wells Ballet. He created his first full-length ballett, The Prince of the Pagodas, for The Royal Ballet. In 1961, John Cranko was appointed ballet director in Stuttgart. At the beginning of his time in Stuttgart, Cranko created short ballets and gathered together a group of dancers, among whom were Egon Madsen, Richard Cragun, Birgit Keil and, most importantly, a young Brazilian dancer named Marcia Haydée who was to become his prime muse and inspiration. The breakthrough for Cranko came in December 1962 with the world premiere of Romeo and Juliet. In Stuttgart Cranko created many small choreographic jewels such as Jeu de cartes, Opus I and Initials R.B.M.E., but it was with his dramatic story ballets such as Onegin, The Taming of the Shrew, Carmen, Poéme de l'Extase and Traces that Cranko secured his place in the pantheon of great choreographers. In addition, he encouraged young dancers in his company - including Jiri Kylian and John Neumeier - to try their hand at choreography. John Cranko died unexpectedly at age 45 on June 26, 1973, on a return flight from a successful U.S.A. tour.

All the choreographic rights to his ballets are today taken care of by the John Cranko Estate in Stuttgart and International Ballet School has permission this Summer to present to students.
