After the sell-out performances of Nutcracker last year, Russian National Ballet returns to the UK with the most famous ballet of all time.

Swan Lake is one of Tchaikovsky’s best works, featuring some of ballet’s most memorable music and breath-taking dance.

It is a tale of two young women, Odette and Odilie, who resemble each other so strikingly one can easily be mistaken for the other.

It is the compelling legend of a tragic romance in which a princess, Odette, is turned into a swan by an evil curse. Prince Siegfried chances upon a flock of swans while out hunting. When one of the swans turns into a beautiful young woman he is instantly captivated – will his love prove strong enough to break the evil spell that she is under?

Swan Lake is full of mystery and romance and has captured the imagination of generations over the years and it continues to attract worldwide audiences, young and old.

Upgrade your ticket for £7.95 to enjoy Prosecco and sweet canapés during the interval.

Swan Lake will be at The Courtyard on Monday, November 12 at 7.30pm. To book, call the box office on 01432 340555 or visit courtyard.org.uk
