Description
A STORY FULL OF LONGING Swan Lake is perhaps the most famous ballet in the world - and not without reason. The tragic story of Odette, who turns into a swan at night, and Prince Siegfried, who wins her heart, is profound, emotional, and visually breathtaking.
It tells of the search for truth, inner strength, and the hope that love can overcome boundaries. FROM CRITICISM TO CROWN When Swan Lake premiered in 1877, the success was initially modest. It was only with the new staging in 1895 that it became a worldwide hit. Today, the work is a benchmark and a prime example of classical ballet art. The famous swan ensemble - perfectly synchronized, dramatically composed - remains one of the most impressive images in the theater world to this day.
MORE THAN JUST A FAIRY TALE The Grand Classic Ballet Winter Tour brings this legend to the stage in atmospheric settings and with a sensitive cast. Whether you're new to ballet or a long-time fan - Swan Lake touches, excites, and stays in memory. For many, it is a fixed part of the cultural winter.
