Tchaikovsky's "Swan Lake" is one of the most popular ballets on the stages of all countries, keeping its position firmly in the programs of music theatres. The ballet is joined into an enjoyable piece by Tchaikovsky's ingenious music, poetic story, versatility of dance rhythms and characters. Choreographer and producer Tiit Härm has based his new version of "Swan Lake" on Lev Ivanov's original choreography that has been followed for almost a century creating a new dimension of a classical fairy tale: swan lake - this is the world of Prince's imagination, a place easy to flee to from real life to seek for happiness and love, but hard to find one's way back from.
