Swan Lake

Russian State Ballet and Opera House burst onto the Crewe Lyceum stage again with a new performance of Swan Lake.

The show includes all the colour, enthusiasm and vibrancy the company normally delivers, with Tchaikovsky’s famous score and a timeless story of good versus evil.

This year’s production, on this Saturday October 18, features the Russian State Ballet and Opera Theatre of Komi, a Russian company renowned for the ballet and opera performances.

Alexej Ignatow, Swan Lake producer, said: “With Russian ballet, you get passion!

“The Russian State Ballet and Opera House was founded to represent quality and passion for ballet and opera at the highest level.

“We pride ourselves in bringing over from Russia a new theatre company and production every year, with much that is original to them.”

Swan Lake premiered 137 years ago, changing the world of ballet with its score by Pyotr I. Tchaikovsky.

Gemma Whalley, Lyceum Theatre marketing manager, said: “We are excited to welcome back the Russian State Ballet and Opera House especially following the sell-out success of last year’s performance of The Nutcracker.

“With an all-new production to enjoy this Autumn it’s the perfect treat for dance enthusiasts of all ages and the ideal introduction to ballet for the whole family.”

Ignatow added: “We feel everyone should have the opportunity to enjoy ballet in their lifetime, which is why we are dedicated to presenting full and positive new productions.

“There is a misconception that you need to understand music or ballet to enjoy them but it is really for everyone.

“All these incredible performances are self-explanatory and you could be assured of falling in love with ballet.”

Tickets are £26 (£24 concessions) with a £1.50 booking fee per ticket.
