Rudolf Nureyev Russian State Ballet Academy presents the premiere UK Tour of
Swan Lake.
The Ballet Academy is named after the legendary ballet dancer Nureyev, who was a star of the London Royal Ballet for over fifteen years. Known for his consummate professionalism and self devotion, his academy is now regarded as one of the world’s best choreographic schools.
The Premiere of Swan Lake transforms the classical ballet into an enchanting fairy-tale. It has that magical combination of Tchaikovsky’s music, a compelling story of tragic romance and choreography that allows the very best dancers to show just how mesmerising they can be. With sumptuous costumes, lavish sets and spell-binding dance Swan Lake is considered to be one of the greatest classical ballets of all time.
