Choreography in focus: Swan Lake

Celebrating the genius of Pyotr Tchaikovsky, Ballet Manila's The Swan, The Fairy and The Princess features three of the most romantic ballets ever written: Swan Lake, The Nutcracker, and Sleeping Beauty. Swan Lake brings to life a Russian folk tale of a princess cursed by a sorcerer to turn into a swan. The spell can only be broken if a man who has never loved before promised to love the princess forever. The Swan, The Fairy and The Princess runs from Oct. 14-16, 2016 at the Aliw Theater.
