Moscow Ballet La Classique "Swan Lake"
Following their 2015 sell-out performances of Sleeping Beauty, Moscow Ballet "La Classique" makes a triumphant return to Australasia with Swan Lake - a spellbinding classical romance.
"The greatest success of Russian theatre is undoubtedly classical ballet."
The most splendid ballet of all time is brought to life by Tchaikovsky's masterpiece score. From the moon-lit lake where elegant swans silently glide to the magnificent opulence of the palace ballroom, Odile, the temptress in a cloud of black tulle, provides a ravishing counterpoint to the purity and innocence of Odette, the beautiful swan Queen. A fairy tale story of a tragic romance. The unrivalled skill and pathos of the famous Moscow Ballet "La Classique" is a visual feast.
See their performances in Nelson on Tuesday 2nd May and Wednesday 3rd May 2017 in the Theatre Royal. Click here to book or call 0800 224 224 or (03) 548 3840.

-
26.2% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.3% ... It is complicated
