Looking ahead towards the coming Olympic summer, this week the Royal Opera House launches its new World Stage Campaign for Spring 2012.

Following last season’s Lauren Cuthbertson film, we’ve created a trailer starring Royal Ballet Principal Artist Edward Watson. As with last season’s promo, the film will feature an exciting contemporary soundtrack, to be revealed later this week. Ahead of the release, here’s an exclusive look behind the scenes:

    I can't see anything about this trailer not to fall in love with. When can we watch it?

      Very soon Karen. We'll tweet as soon as it's live.

    It's great that ballet is embracing the men who have more womanly physiques- go Ed go!

    Exciting! I loved Edward Watson the last time I saw him in Metamorphosis. Can't wait to watch this one.
