About Swan Lake
There is perhaps no ballet more famous, beloved or iconic than Tchaikovsky's classic beauty Swan Lake. Adapted from old folk stories in the Russian culture, Swan Lake is a two act ballet that first premiered way back in 1877 and has remained a beloved standard today. The ballet follows the story of a princess named Odette who befalls a powerful curse by a devious witch who turns Odette into a swan. Due to technical skill required to do justice to the source material, productions of Swan Lake frequently draw the greatest ballet performers in the world, as well as the greatest and most respected directors, choreographers and production companies. Tchaikovsky, also known for his other masterpiece of ballet theater The Nutcracker, is considered by many to be the greatest ballet composer in history. He considered Swan Lake his finest work, and completed the entirety of the composition in less than a year. Swan Lake is the rare act that transcends time to connect with audiences old and young alike, and its a must-see piece of the world's art history that shouldn't be missed.
