One of the greatest of all Romantic ballets and a classic tale of love, betrayal and the supernatural. The Royal Ballet's Giselle will be available to watch from Friday 3 December 2021. Pre-order now: stream.roh.org.uk/products/gi...
Peter Wright’s acclaimed production of the greatest of all Romantic ballets is superbly atmospheric in its telling of Marius Petipa’s classic tale of love, betrayal and the supernatural.
Giselle is the classic ballet of the Romantic era - and, for the dancer performing the title role, one of the greatest challenges in the repertory. Peter Wright’s production, a classic itself, perfectly achieves the dual aspects of the ballet, moving from the naivety of young love between Giselle and Albrecht in the village setting of Act I to the ethereal Wilis in Act II’s eerie moonlit forest. Rich in vivid character detail and poignant depth of feeling, Giselle is a reminder of ballet’s power to move and thrill.
