Pacific Northwest Ballet: Swan Lake
$44-$194
Tchaikovsky – Swan Lake, Op. 20
Ever since Kent Stowell’s stunning new production of Swan Lake marked the grand opening of McCaw Hall, audiences have been awestruck by its transcendent beauty and power. This most famous of classical ballets is a tour de force on all levels: Tchaikovsky’s glorious score, spectacular costume and scenic designs, plus a ballerina’s hallmark achievement – the dual role of Odette/Odile. Swan Lake’s mist-filled rows of exquisite swans hovering protectively around their queen is an ethereal vision that lingers long after leaving the theater.
