SWAN LAKE

Music: P.I. Tchaikovsky
Choreography: L. Iwanow and M. Petipa

The most famous ballet of all time, Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky's masterpiece, "Swan Lake", is presented by the ROYAL CLASSICAL BALLET in a major summer tour of open-air theatres throughout Greece.

"Swan Lake" is a love story that never ceases to captivate viewers. The beautiful Odette lives trapped in the body of a swan, due to the curse of the dark wizard Rothbart. Only at night, when the moon rises in the sky, does she take on her human form. When the young prince Siegfried meets her, he is enchanted by her beauty and purity. But the cunning sorcerer tries to marry his daughter, Odile, the black swan, to the prince. When he discovers the truth, Siegfried fights to free his beloved from the bonds of the curse. And as the sun rises, the power of their true love proves more potent than any dark magic, granting them eternity…

The most poetic, romantic, yet tragic love story that you should not miss.

"Swan Lake" is the ultimate challenge in a dancer's career since the virtuoso skills and lyricism required for a complete interpretation are almost beyond human limits. At the same time, it is an autonomous musical work of great interpretive demands, with beloved melodies that captivate the senses.

Also, for the first time, the sets of the performance will be digital and three-dimensional with a new aesthetic approach, thus offering an impressive and fairytale spectacle that will move young and old!

The ROYAL CLASSICAL BALLET is an internationally renowned ballet from Ukraine. It consists of 30 professional dancers with passion and enthusiasm for their art. The dancers, graduates of leading dance academies in Ukraine and other European countries, charm us with their high-level technique and transport us to the dreamy world of Tchaikovsky, giving life to the most beautiful ballet stories.
