A work synonymous with ballet calls forth new emotion.

An ageless masterwork graced by Tchaikovsky’s lyrical score and by its glorious choreography and dramatic structure. Artistic director Maki Asami’s revised production at the New National Theatre Tokyo last season, featuring all new scenery and costumes, has become an instant classic. With a streamlined storyline and even more highlights of dance, it provides a new way to experience the emotional impact of the original, with its tale of love and death..

Synopsis

One night, Prince Siegfried meets Princess Odette by the lake and falls in love with her. Turned into a swan by the evil Rothbart, the princess is restored to human form only at night. The prince makes up his mind to rescue her and swears eternal love for her. However at the ball, he begs to marry Odile, daughter of the magician, who is identical to Odette. He asks Odette’s forgiveness and fights against his fate, and finally the love of the two breaks the spell.
