On December 14, 2024 Swan Lake returns to the stage of the Staatsoper Unter den Linden. This ballet classic par excellence uses the means of classical dance to tell the story of Prince Siegfried and his love for the enchanted Princess Odette, who is trapped in swan form. Patrice Bart’s celebrated version retains the large-scale swan imagery and adds a psychological interpretation of the characters.
