About the show Choreography and staging by Bruce Simpson after Marius Petipa and Nicholas Beriosoff
Music by P. I. Tchaikovsky*
One of the Petipa/Tchaikovsky masterpieces, Swan Lake embodies all the ideals of the classical ballet: beauty, strength and grace. The ballet centers around one of the most recognizable themes in dance: good triumphing over evil. An evil sorcerer casts a horrific spell on Princess Odette, transforming her into a swan every evening at midnight, an enchantment that may forever prevent her from being united with her true love. Swan Lake recounts the struggles and triumphs of love in this magnificent gem of the classical ballet.
*Performed by the Louisville Orchestra
