Swan Lake

A spellbinding classical romance'  

"The greatest success of Russian theatre is undoubtedly classical ballet."  

The most splendid ballet of all time was brought to life by Petipa & Tchaikovsky's spectacular score masterpiece.  

From the moon-lit lake where elegant swans silently glide to the magnificent opulence of the palace ballroom, Odile, the temptress in a cloud of black tulle, provides a ravishing counterpoint to the purity and innocence of Odette, the beautiful swan queen. A fairy tale story conveying all the drama of a tragic romance.
