Swan Lake
Tallinn, Estonian National Opera — Theatre Hall
About the Event
“Swan Lake” offers an unforgettable experience of romance, virtuoso dancing and Tchaikovsky’s magnificent music.
Despite the poor reception of the premiere in 1877, it has become one of the most beloved and frequently performed pieces. The technically demanding double role of Odette/Ottilie poses a challenge for any prima ballerina.
Thomas Edur’s version combines beautiful dance classics with a story of romance, sorcery and the struggle between good and evil.

More than I expected, user experience was absolutely nice, and I adore it. If it is possible, there should be the guild board or something in English.
