About Swan Lake - Birmingham Royal Ballet
Birmingham Royal Ballet’s treasured production of the world’s best-loved ballet.
The greatest of all romantic ballets returns in “one of the world’s finest productions” (The Observer). BRB revives Peter Wright and Galina Samsova’s glorious Swan Lake – with the Royal Ballet Sinfonia performing Tchaikovsky’s superb music alongside BRB’s spectacular dancers.
Prince Siegfried is out hunting when he discovers a flock of swans. When one of them turns into the beautiful princess Odette, Siegfried is smitten – but Odette explains that she’s under a spell cast by the evil Rothbart, keeping her in swan form from dawn to dusk.
Can Siegfried break the spell?
