Segerstrom Hall
with Pacific Symphony June 20 - 22, 2025As timeless as love itself, Swan Lake has been enchanting audiences the world over for more than a century – ever since Marius Petipa and Lev Ivanov restaged the work for the Imperial Mariinsky Theater in 1895.
Now, the world’s most mesmerizing ballet is being performed by Miami City Ballet in a captivating version by one of the most brilliant choreographers of our time, Alexei Ratmansky. (Center audiences have a long-standing relationship with Ratmansky having seen the premieres of his The Sleeping Beauty, Whipped Cream, and Of Love and Rage)
More than 50 dancers adorn the stage in lush and glittering costumes to tell the story of Prince Siegfried, Princess Odette and her fellow spellbound swans, the evil Baron and impostor Odile.
Tchaikovsky’s moving and joyful music is played live by Pacific Symphony as some of ballet’s most famous moments unfold. From a grand and gorgeous medieval court to the lakeside under a midnight moon, the romance of this achingly beautiful Swan Lake will set your heart alight.
This Swan Lake has become the one by which we should judge all others.
Triumphant. An overwhelming success.
