Swan Lake

SYNOPSIS

A heart-wrenching fable of true love heroically won and tragically squandered.

Swan Lake is classical theatricality at its thrilling best. Virtuoso solos, an achingly beautiful score, and a majestic corps de ballet in brilliant white are all emblematic of the opulent grandeur of the greatest of all 19th-Century story ballets.

When we premiered our new Swan Lake in 2006, every performance sold out well in advance. Subscribe today and get the seats you want at the very best price before they go on sale to the general public!

“Oregon Ballet Theatre pulls out all the stops with this big, bold full-length journey into one of the landmarks of ballet history.” — Oregonian

“...this is true reverential spectacle...” — Willamette Week
