Swan Lake

Music: P. I. Tchaikovsky

Choreography: L. Ivanov and M. Petipa

Edited by Alex Bogutsky

Stage Design and Costumes: V. Okunev

The International Festival Ballet presents one of the most famous ballets set to the music of Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky’s “Swan Lake.”

“Swan Lake” is synonymous with ballet for many. The romantic fairy tale about the young prince Siegfried, who falls in love with the swan princess Odette and seeks to free her from the evil spell of the sorcerer Rothbart, is a story about the power of true love.

This ballet piece is part of the standard repertoire of all major companies. In particular, the Allegro Moderato from the swan dances of Act 2 has been the subject of countless parodies in the choreography of Lev Ivanov and is widely known beyond the ballet-interested audience as the “Dance of the Four Little Swans.” In short: a brilliant work by a brilliant composer and a crowd-puller for centuries.

“Swan Lake” is brought to the stage by one of the best classical ballet ensembles, the International Festival Ballet. Additionally, the magnificent stage design by the brilliant theater designer Vyacheslav Okunev, who has worked for the Mariinsky Theatre in St. Petersburg and La Scala in Milan, along with beautiful costumes and the boundless elegance and carefree lightness of the ballet ensemble, create a dreamy and fairy-tale version of a classic ballet that continues to captivate even after more than 100 years.
