When MacMillan premiered his full-length Manon at Londons Royal Opera House in 1974, the ballet created somewhat of a scandal. Filled with morally questionable characters who engage in gambling, erotic duets, shady dealings, fickle behavior, murder, and prostitution, it represented the antithesis of fairytale ballets with happily-ever-after endings.
