Firsts We've had a few firsts. We developed and produced the first ever cinema series of contemporary dance for Pathé Live, in collaboration with Nederlands Dans Theater - one of the greatest dance-theatre companies in the world. Our production of Don Quichot was the first full-length ballet to be released on iTunes. We were the first to include a Choreographer's commentary on our DVD & Blu-Ray release of Christopher Wheeldon's Cinderella. And we're currently developing Coppelia, the first feature film to combine animation with live action ballet. Photo: Parade, choreography Crystal Pite, Pathé Live / NDT cinema broadcast
