Swan Lake



While seeing the swanlike skirts, it reminded me of my ballet lessons when I was a very very little girl over ten years ago...

This was my first time to see performance at National Theater. And this is the best one after I saw Mamma Mia! last summer in New York. The only impression in swan lake is just the melody and graceful dancers but after reading the introduction I found that is a quite simple story which have four different parts to explain how the prince find his lovely princess.

These ballet dancers' every steps show their sorrow, pain, happiness and nervousness correctly. That's why I think their show was really marvelous. Moscow City Ballet is regarded as the excellent ballet in the whole world. How lucky I am getting the nice view tickets! But If they also have the symphony orchestra in front of the performing stage, it would be perfect.
