The story of the white swan and the black swan is classical ballet itself. And if presenting this ballet of all ballets set to Tchaikovsky wonderful music along with the Opera’s ballet company are young developing dancers, then we can count on piquing the interest of the youngest – kindergarteners and smaller schoolchildren – generation. In a little over an hour, the narrative features the students as it summarises the loveliest moments of the story until the time comes for the actual professional dancers to join in so that we can come face to face with the Prince and the five ethereal Swan Girls who accompany him.
This production features the students of the Hungarian National Ballet Institute and the dancers of the Hungarian National Ballet.
