Dennis Nahat’s version of one of the greatest romantic
ballets ever written features over 135 costumes and beautiful
scenery from David Guthrie. Danced to a live performance by
Symphony Silicon Valley, the romantic tale follows Prince Siegfried
as he rescues his beloved Princess Odette from the wicked Baron
von Rothbart who has cast a spell on the young beauty and turned
her into the Swan Queen. Using additional works of Tchaikovsky,
Nahat’s prologue highlights the villainous nature of
Rothbart by delving into the source of his evil.
