BALLET’S GREATEST LOVE STORY, SWAN LAKE, COMES ALIVE FOR LOCAL AUDIENCES WITH ENCINITAS BALLET!

Encinitas Ballet proudly presents one of the greatest love stories of all time — Swan Lake.

A timeless ballet that has become an icon of beauty, passion, and enchantment, Swan Lake invites you into a world where love triumphs over darkness. Featuring our extraordinary local youth dancers alongside distinguished guest artists, this production brings together the rising stars of our community with world-class artistry on one unforgettable stage. .

This family-friendly production will feature two gold medalist professional dancers, Alexander Saveliev and Mushegh Avetisyan. Swan Lake premiered on February 20, 1877, at the Bolshoi Theatre. It was the first ballet set to the score of a symphonic composer and has endured as one of Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky’s most famous works. It tells the love story of Odette, a beautiful princess turned into a swan by the evil sorcerer von Rothbart. Prince Siegfried falls in love with Odette and attempts to break the spell, but is deceived by Rothbart’s daughter, Odile.

Let yourself be carried away by graceful movement, powerful storytelling, and the magic of live performance — an experience that will inspire hearts of all ages.
