Swan into Spring 2008
 

English National Ballet’s Spring tour sees a thrilling programme of divertissements and pas de deux entitled Swan into Spring and classic comic ballet Coppélia.

Swan into Spring includes the brilliant Etudes, which is a glamourous take on a daily ballet class which demonstrates our 64 dancers’ strength, speed and artistry. Pas de deux from Manon, Don Quixote and other balletswill be selected each Performance to complete the exciting programme.

In Coppélia, lovers Swanilda and Franz fool the eccentric Dr Coppélius into believing his mechanical doll has come to life.

“A joyful, colourful ballet which is suitable for children and adults alike”
