Swan Lake - International Ballet Company Italia

Ballet in Four Acts

Music: Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky
Choreography: M. Petipa, L. Ivanov
Libretto: V. Begichev, W. Geltzer

Swan Lake embodies everything that defines classical ballet: elegance, grace, and above all, technical perfection.

Everyone should experience the extraordinary ballet Swan Lake at least once in their lifetime. And once you have seen it, you will undoubtedly fall in love with it.

A classical production featuring scenographic elements of striking realism, dazzling costumes, intricately crafted props, and a series of enchanting melodies brings this great masterpiece of classical ballet to life. The collaboration between composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky and choreographer Marius Petipa was one of the most fortunate encounters in ballet history. The fairy-tale story of the enchanted Princess Odette ranks among the great, timeless classics of the ballet repertoire.

This masterpiece features leading soloists, an outstanding ensemble of highly accomplished ballet dancers, and above all, a seamless combination of refined acting and virtuosic technical performance.

It is the story of a prince who falls in love with Odette, transformed into a white swan by the sorcerer Rothbart. Their love is put to the test: lyrical and tragic moments, festive and intimate scenes set against the atmospheric “white acts” by the lake, contrasted with the magnificent and colorful costumes of the royal court, promise a varied and celebratory evening of grand classical ballet.

A beautiful and romantic story that touches the soul.

The performance is presented by International Ballet Company Italia, under the artistic direction of Alessandro Bonavita. Founded in 2022, the company brings together charismatic and talented dancers from around the world.
