Russian State Ballet's La Fille Mal Gardee at Edinburgh Playhouse

Recreated by Alexander Gorsky, this remains one of the oldest ballets still regularly performed and tells the tale of the love between Lise and Colas, and Lise's efforts to thwart her overly possessive mother's plan to marry her off to a rich, unattractive vineyard owner! Featuring comedy, drama and beautiful virtuoso dancing, these are just some of the highlights which also include the flute dance, Fanny Elsler pas de deux and the famous clog dance.
