Swan Lake
Kenneth Greve
The new production of Swan Lake by Kenneth Greve, Artistic Director of the Finnish National Ballet, is a fresh yet tradition-conscious new interpretation. "I have never understood why the prince should fall in love with a bird. In my version, the prince meets Odette as a beautiful young woman", Greve says.
Swan Lake's music is by Tchaikovsky, and its modern choreographies are based on the version created by Marius Petipa and Lev Ivanov in 1895.
Recommended for children aged 6 and above.
