Swan Lake

Author(s): Tchaikovsky Company: Varna International Ballet

From the impressive splendour of the Palace ballroom to the moon-lit lake where swans glide in perfect formation, Swan Lake is a compelling tale of tragic romance.

From Odile, the temptress in black tutu as she seduces the Prince to the spellbound purity of the swan queen, Odette as she flutters with emotional intensity, the dual role of Odette/Odile is one of ballet’s most unmissable technical challenges.
