Bolshoi Ballet: Giselle
March 15, 2020, 12:55 PM – 3:30 PM
$15 – $18
Written by: Adophe Adam
Choreography by: Alexei Ratmansky
The young peasant girl, Giselle, dies of a broken heart when she learns that the man she loves, Albrecht, has betrayed her. Against her own will, she joins the Wilis, vengeful spirits of jilted brides who condemn Albrecht to dance until he dies of exhaustion.
In this brand-new production of Giselle, world renowned choreographer Alexei Ratmansky brings a fresh perspective to one of the oldest and greatest works of classical dance, giving the audience an opportunity to discover this iconic ballet anew.
This performance is an encore, high-definition broadcast from the Bolshoi Ballet in Moscow, Russia. The approximate running time is 2:30, with intermissions TBA.
Tickets: $15 - $18. (Prices include per ticket handling fees.)
