August 22, 2016
Combining classical training and technique with the best-loved Russian ballets, Saint Petersburg Classic Ballet’s performances have an air of magic and are presented by outstanding soloists whose exquisite dancing will take your breath away.
As the popularity of classical ballet reaches new heights, a new generation of dance lovers is discovering that a live ballet performance on stage is the ultimate dance experience. Tchaikovsky’s ‘big story ballets’ are the essence of Russian culture – composed, choreographed and premiered in Russia. What better way to see them performed than by a spectacular Russian company complemented by a full orchestra?
Swan Lake is Tchaikovsky’s masterpiece, an epic love story accompanied by a glorious score. This is the story of Prince Siegfried and his love for Odette who, tricked by the evil sorcerer Von Rothbart and his daughter Odile, would rather die together then live apart. Tickets can be purchased here.
