I will begin by telling you that I know very poorly the history of ballet or worse their methods but that does not keep me from being enchanted by it. Last night we went to a ballet organized by a dance academy of my city, they were presenting ”The Swan Lake” and I feel proud to tell you that this has been the best art show I have ever seen in my city.
The Swan Lake was fashioned from Russian folk tales, tells the story of Odette, a princess turned into a swan by an evil wizard’s curse.
The Swan Lake was fashioned from Russian folk tales, tells the story of Odette, a princess turned into a swan by an evil wizard’s curse.
It was composed in 1875–1876 and its composed in 4 acts.
The story developes with Odette and the prince falling in love and in one of the queen’s balls Odile ”The Black Swan” shows herself as the White Swan and deceives The Prince so he declares his passionate love to her which makes Odette’s curse irreversible, later on he realizes that he has been cheated by the Black Swan and runs to Odette’s arms who lies in agony.. In the original play, Odette and The prince kill themselves so they can be together but many other directors have changed the end and adapted to their own taste.
I was fascinated by it and couldn’t stay without telling you about it.
What is your favorite dance? Which one is your favorite love story? Have you ever been in this kind of play?
Would you like to be The White Swan or The Black Swan? Why?
