Ballet of the Romanian National Opera Theater of Iasi

One of the immortal masterpieces of the history of 19th century ballet by Marius Petipa. Represented in 1877 for the first time at the Bolshoi Theater in Moscow, despite Tchaikovsky's music, it did not immediately have the success that was later achieved in 1894, the year in which it was staged at the Marijinsky Theater in St. Petersburg.

Swan Lake tells the enchanting love story between the young prince Siegfried and Odette, an otherworldly creature transformed into a swan by the evil wizard Rothbart for having rejected his love.

The Iasi Opera Ballet, one of the most acclaimed classical dance companies that has been touring throughout Europe for more than twenty-four years, revives the emotion of this classic with its muffled atmospheres. Light designs and suggestive scenography will immerse the audience in the theater in the candid atmosphere of the most famous swan lake in the world.
