New version of La Fille mal Gardée in Australia

West Australian Ballet  (located in Perth) and Queensland Ballet (located in Brisbane) are co-producing a new version of La Fille mal Gardée, set in the 1950s and with choreography by French choreographer Marc Ribaud, former artistic director of the Ballet de l'Opéra de Nice and the Royal Swedish Ballet.
More details in this article, which mistakenly states that this is the most frequently staged version, when of course that honour goes to Frederick Ashton's.

The score is the same as that put together by John Lanchbery from Ferdinand Herold's early 19th-century version, and the synopsis seems to be identical.
