TICKETS are selling fast for this popular ballet, performed by the world-renowned Moscow Ballet La Classique.

Swan Lake has been enchanting audiences across the globe for more than 100 years. Set to the sounds of Tchaikovsky's wondrous score, audiences follow the magical story of beautiful Odette, cursed by the sorcerer Von Rothbart to become a swan during the hours of daylight. Dashing Prince Siegfried falls in love with Odette but is tricked by the evil magician into swearing his affections elsewhere. Can the power of Odette and Siegfried's love undo all Von Rothbart's wicked spells?

Established in 1990, Moscow Ballet La Classique consists of leading dancers from major dance venues of the former Soviet Republics, including Moscow's Bolshoi and St Petersburg's Kirov Theatres, as well as the ballet theatres of Kiev and Odessa in the Ukraine.
