The 2022-2023 season is capped off by one of ballet's greatest love stories, Swan Lake. In this opulent production, the everlasting love between Prince Siegfried and maiden-turned-white-swan Odette is tested by evil knight Rothbart and his black-swan enchantress, Odile.

Stanton Welch's Swan Lake, inspired by Pre-Raphaelite painter John William Waterhouse’s painting The Lady of Shalott, features lavish sets and costumes by Kristian Fredrikson and utilizes Tchaikovsky's full score to aplomb for this three-act production. In addition, Welch imbues the main characters with greater psychological complexity in his staging, giving the work a 21st century pace.
