6-8 Oct, "Autumn Glory": Checkmate/ Symphonic Variations/ Pineapple Poll, Birmingham Hippodrome. De Valois's iconic Checkmate shows a lethal chess-game as a metaphor for war, music by Arthur Bliss. Ashton's Symphonic Variations is a hallowed masterpiece of pure, spring-like dance to César Franck. John Cranko's Pineapple Poll is Gilbert and Sullivan in ballet.
