Although the ballet was created especially for young people, it never lacks the "serious" choreography of classical ballet. The principals of the Mikhailovsky Ballet really enjoy themselves turning from Siegfrieds and Odettes into 'vegetables' and 'fruits'. The rhythms of dance, the portrayal and humour of the characters and the exceptional performances keeps everyone enthralled.
Please note: there are no surtitles in this production
