Painting for the stage: Kenneth MacMillan and Sidney Nolan's ‘Rite of Spring’

Deborah MacMillan and Clement Crisp discuss Kenneth MacMillan's 'The Rite of Spring', and Sidney Nolan's sets for the ballet.


Fifty years on, the choreographer Kenneth MacMillan's choice of Sidney Nolan to design his version of 'The Rite of Spring' has proved to be an extraordinary and enduring one. Deborah MacMillan and Clement Crisp discuss the work, and how a painter used to working in two dimensions came to terms with a third.
