Summary
Céline Gittens dances the dual role of Odette and Odile in Birmingham Royal Ballet’s production of Tchaikovsky’s classic, accompanied by the Royal Ballet Sinfonia.
Why it's fantastic
Tchaikovsky’s haunting score contains some of the most recognisable melodies in orchestral history, perfectly capturing the tragedy of the swan queen. This production offers a definitive encounter with the art form, balancing technical precision with a dark, romantic atmosphere that remains the ultimate starting point for any newcomer.
