One @ the Ballet - Swan Lake

Conducted by our Artistic Director, Janek Schergen will explore a wide spectrum of dance topics which will enable individuals gain a greater insight into the world of dance. From something as detailed as the little rituals that dancers perform before they go onstage, to the creative process a choreographer undergoes to create a new work, the audience can expect to enhance their knowledge of dance and also watch our dancers up-close and personal as they perform excerpts from our main performance seasons.

Swan Lake
Swan Lake is the most well-known of all ballets and probably the most misunderstood. We will explore some of the history and myth associated with this remarkable work. The Singapore Ballet dancers will show segments of two different acts of the Ballet. We first performed the full ballet in December 2007 and, since then, the ballet has become a significant part of the company’s repertoire. Repeated viewings of a work such as this deepen the appreciation of such a masterpiece. Different casts bring out multiple aspects of the character of this particular ballet so this will be the basis of our One @ the Ballet session.
