Spring Rep '09
Swan Lake
Contra Costa Ballet presents Swan Lake, the most famous of all ballets. Choreographed by Katarina Wester, this timeless story of good versus evil is filled with romance, drama, and intrigue. This sumptuous production set to one of Tchaikovsky's most enduring scores will engage audiences of all ages. Swan Lake is, first and foremost, a "story ballet," but audiences will enjoy it as living art for the senses. The music, the scenery, the costumes, the grace and precision of the dancers combine for a memorable performance.
The Company is honored to share the stage with professional guest artists Ashley Ivory of Company C Contemporary Ballet in the dual role of Odette/Odile, and David Fonnegra of Diablo Ballet as Prince Seigfried.
