The Greatest Swan Lake in the World
Acclaimed dance sensation returns
Following its immense success in 2017 with sold-out performances, the renowned Shanghai Ballet returns in 2026 with The Greatest Swan Lake in the World. Once again, audience will embrace this excellent performance, which has received rave reviews worldwide.
In the 140-year history of Swan Lake, thousands of performances of Tchaikovsky's masterpiece have been staged, but this version by British ballet maestro Derek Deane shines at a level of its own. The performance, featuring no fewer than 48 swans instead of the usual 24, and its extraordinary quality make this production an experience unlike any other. The beautiful “birds of love” create enchanting scenes, transforming into homogeneous, ever-changing formations that pass by like Degas-like paintings.
With this almost supernatural production, China proves that it is also among the world's best in the field of classical ballet.
Let yourself be carried away by this wonderful ballet!
