The Bolshoi Ballet’s performance of Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky’s world famous ballet Swan Lake comes to Mumbai along with other great productions by the company. The NCPA has joined hands with film distributors Pathé Live to bring high quality screenings of Bolshoi’s latest seasons to theatre audiences in India. Based on Russian folk tales, and brilliantly choreographed by Yury Grigorovich, Swan Lake tells the story of a princess, Odette, who is turned into a swan by a sorcerer’s curse. Ever since the act premiered in 1877, it has become one of the classic pieces in the world of ballet.
Swan Lake, 14 and 15 April, National Centre for the Performing Arts, NCPA Marg, Nariman Point, Mumbai. For more information, visit www.ncpamumbai.com.
