    Pennsylvania Ballet’s own stunning version of the world’s most beloved ballet. Premiered in 2004 to national acclaim, Christopher Wheeldon’s stellar production of Swan Lake was commissioned and performed to sold-out audiences for the Company’s 40th anniversary season. Wheeldon’s Swan Lake is based on the original Ivanov/Petipa classic and set to the timeless Tschaikovsky score, but has been re-imagined for today’s audiences. The million-dollar production features spectacular sets and costumes set in the 19th-century milieu of the Paris Opera Ballet of Edgar Degas. Dazzling choreography and visual complexities illuminate ballet’s greatest love story. A unique opportunity to catch a superlative show!
