'Swan Lake'

When: Thu., Nov. 14, 7:30 p.m. 2019

Though considered unsuccessful at the time of its original debut, Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky’s late 19th-century masterpiece Swan Lake is one of the most revived works in the ballet canon, according to the Russian Ballet Theatre. The RBT brings the story of Prince Siegfried and Odette, a swan by day and a human woman by night, to Burlington. The lavish production features hand-painted sets, 150 hand-sewn costumes and the addition of fresh choreography by Nadezhda Kalinina. Ballerina Olga Kifyak spreads her wings in the dual role of Odette and Odile, performing its signature 32 fouettés en tournant.

Price: $30-70.
