Swan Lake Act II & The Firebird

Experience two timeless classics in one unforgettable ballet performance!

Lynchburg’s Resident Dance Company premieres Act II of Swan Lake, arguably the most famous scene in the classical ballet canon. On a moonlit lake, Prince Siegfried falls in love with the beautiful swan queen Odette, who is cursed by the evil sorcerer Von Rothbart to live as a swan by day and a human by night. Tchaikovsky’s exquisite score is sublimely fused with high drama, iconic dances, and majestic swans that make this work a masterpiece. 

After intermission, another famous bird takes flight in The Firebird, set to the polychromatic score by Stravinsky. This vibrant folktale follows a dashing prince, a beautiful princess, and the magical bird who saves them all. 

Don’t miss this extraordinary double bill of breathtaking dance that’s perfect for all ages!
