Swan Lake By Ballet West UK The Golden Gala Premiere
Genting
Highlands, August 2018 - Swan Lake by Ballet West UK, a mythical love story that combines
magic, love and tragedy. Swan Lake, originally composed by Tchaikovsky in 1877
at Bolshoi Theatre in Moscow, is about a beautiful maiden turned into a swan by
an evil sorcerer, and the prince who falls in love with her. The Dance Company
redefines this most loved and mesmerizing classic ballet with a new vigor and
unparalleled passion. This classic is a must- see whether you are an aficionado
or a newcomer to ballet.
This stage at Resorts World Genting is a full-length performance led by soloists
Natasha Watson, Jonathan Barton, and Uyu Hiromoto and full cast of dancers
from Ballet West International Touring Company. Performing for the first time
in Southeast Asia, the company had previously toured Europe and China with
sold-out performances in ever 40 cities. The performance is choreographed by
the award-winning Daniel Job, who
also serves as artistic advisor.

We were enthralled by the graceful dance choreography by
the main casts as well as the rest of the dance crews. Every set piece moments
were carefully executed with the elegant dance which is going to blow your mind
away.
Apart from delivering a wonderful dance performance, Swan Lake by Ballet West also features

progresses from act 1 till the final act.
