Swan Lake 2016

Presented by Grand International Concerts

Following their 2015 sell-out performances of
Sleeping Beauty, Moscow Ballet ‘La Classique’ makes a triumphant return to Australia presenting their spectacular performance of Swan Lake, the 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 Petipa and Tchaikovsky’s spectacular score masterpiece.

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 conveying all the drama of a tragic romance.

Moscow Ballet ‘La Classique’ was established in 1990 by its current director Elik Melikov. In this two act performance, the illustrious Moscow Ballet ‘La Classique’, with their ballet skills, lavish costumes and magnificent stage sets, will capture the imagination, the passion and the romance of this classical ballet fairy-tale.
