A famous title in the great classical repertoire, Swan Lake tells the love story between Prince Siegfried and Odette, a princess transformed into a swan by the perfidious magician Rothbart. Amidst grand court festivities, enchanted love scenes, spells and deceptions, this great title brings to the stage all the charm of ballet and classical technique, narrating one of the most important love adventures in the history of theatre.

The prestige and timeless fame achieved by Swan Lake are enhanced by the inspiring music of Pyotr Il'ič Tchaikovsky and the great inventiveness and expressiveness of Marius Petipa's choreography, here reinterpreted by Marco Batti, artistic director of the Balletto di Siena. The genius of its choreographic and artistic potential culminates in translating the relationship between the human body and the movements of the swans.
