The Mariinsky Ballet Company at the Odeon of Herodes Atticus! And, what’s more, with the quintessential work of the 19th-century repertoire, Swan Lake, interpreted by the Russian school synonymous with the history of the classical ballet.
The fairytale with prince Siegfried and the White and Black Swan (Odette / Odile) continues to inspire and challenge with the virtuosity and lyricism it demands.
Additionally, by differentiating dreams from reality in the manner of late 19th-century Symbolism, the libretto is the perfect match for the choreography.
