On Saturday, January 26 the Spruce Peak Performing Arts center stage will be filled with 55 dancers from the Ballet of the Odessa National Opera, an Ukraine dance company performing "Swan Lake" by Tchaikovsky. The Ballet of the Odessa National Opera is where the greatest divas of Ukraine ballet perform on stage, from Anna Pavlova to Galina Ulanova and Maya Plisetskaya.
"Swan Lake" is a timeless love story that mixes magic, tragedy, and romance into two acts. It features Prince Siegfried and a lovely swan princess named Odette. Under the spell of a sorcerer, Odette spends her days as a swan swimming on a lake of tears and her nights in her beautiful human form. It is a timeless story of the classic romance of love that is out of reach.
This is a ballet in four acts with one intermission.
