The U.K.-based performing-arts streaming service Marquee TV has expanded into the U.S. market with the launch of its full slate of programming on Comcast’s X1 platform.<\/p>\n

The network features thousands of hours of content, in addition to exclusive content, early releases, directors\u2019 cuts and shorts. With this latest launch, Marquee TV will provide a new group of customers access to a variety of curated contemporary and classic theatrical, dance, opera and music performances from globally renowned artistic powerhouses.<\/p>\n

Marquee TV’s programming includes critically acclaimed productions such as the Royal Shakespeare Company’s Richard II<\/em> starring David Tennant (Doctor Who<\/em>, Jessica Jones<\/em>); The Bolshoi Ballet’s Swan Lake<\/em> starring Svetlana Zakharova and Denis Rodkin; The Royal Ballet’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland<\/em>; and The Royal Opera House’s Madama Butterfly<\/em> starring Ermonela Jaho, among others. The network also offers documentaries featuring notable artists Renee Fleming (opera star) and Darcey Bussell (ballerina), to name a few.<\/p>\n

Newly acquired exclusives to Marquee TV making their national premiere in the U.S. include The Royal Swedish Ballet’s Eskapist<\/em> by multi-award-winning choreographer Alexander Ekman, who is best-known in the U.S. for his production of 2018’s Midsummer Night’s Dream<\/em> at The Joffrey Ballet in Chicago; The Batsheva Dance Company’s Sadeh21<\/em> by Ohad Naharin; Mariinsky Theatre’s Mazepa<\/em> (opera); and a version of Le Corsaire<\/em> (ballet) that features American Ballet Theatre guest artist Kimin Kim and Maria Khoreva.<\/p>\n

The U.S. launch of Marquee TV comes just under one year after its U.K. debut, with a more robust global rollout expected in 2020.<\/p>\n

“Watching performances on-demand is a distinct experience from heading to the theatre and is opening up cultural content to a new arts-curious generation,” said Simon Walker, co-founder and CEO of Marquee TV. “Marquee TV’s availability on top tier platforms allows us to offer our customers access to premier multi-genre performing arts content that is not available anywhere else.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
