Summary
English National Ballet performs Derek Deane’s production of Tchaikovsky’s Swan Lake, staged in-the-round at the Royal Albert Hall.
Why it's fantastic
Witnessing dozens of swans move in perfect synchronisation across the arena floor offers a unique perspective on this legendary tragedy. Seeing the dancers at close quarters makes Tchaikovsky’s most famous melodies feel remarkably intimate, highlighting the sheer physical power required to bring the iconic dual roles of Odette and Odile to life.
