Although we may not want to admit it, winter is now fast approaching here – but with the drop in temperature also comes a brand new Season at the Royal Opera House. To coincide with this we have been creating a new trailer for the World Stage Winter Season.

The location for last Monday’s filming was worlds apart from the Covent Garden stage, taking place in a huge hidden TV studio on a West London industrial estate.

Royal Ballet’s principal Lauren Cuthbertson is in the spotlight this Winter for the Olympic themed trailer. With the upcoming games in mind, Lauren blends her balletic abilities and with that of a gymnast.

Here’s a behind the scenes sneak preview of what went on on the set
