Children's Ballet Theatre  of Michigan

Swan Lake, 2006

This timeless classic ballet is the mystical tale of Prince Siegfried who falls in love with a beautiful princess, Odette, who under a sorcerer's spell spends her days as a swan. Only at night does Odette return to her human form. Von Rothbart, the sorcerer, will stop at nothing to dampen their romance. He uses the lovely Odile to entice the prince away from Odette. The ballet ends as Odette dies in Siegfried's arms from a broken heart, knowing they will never be together in this life.
