Time:
1:00 pm - 4:00 pm

In light of the escalating events in Ukraine, the remaining presentations of the Bolshoi Ballet in Cinema 2021-22 season (Swan Lake and The Pharaoh’s Daughter) have been postponed indefinitely.  Thank you for your understanding and support.

The legend of the enigmatic swan-woman set Tchaikovsky’s masterpiece of a score is ballet’s most beloved production in the classical canon. The Bolshoi Ballet’s Swan Lake exemplifies the dramatic tension and heart-stopping beauty of motion with print ballerina Olga Smirnova leading the cast, as sensational as the black swam as she is poignant as white swan.
 
Lured to the banks of a mysterious lake by his alter-ego, the Evil Genius, Prince Siegfried encounters the most beautiful swan Odette and swears his love to her. At the castle, prospective brides try to entertain the distracted Prince, but it is the ravishing swan Odile who threatens the promise Siegfried made to Odette.
