Full Version: Cranko's Swan Lake??
Ballet Talk > Ballet Discussion Forums > Everything Else Ballet

I am looking forward to seeing Cranko's Swan Lake for the first time (provided I manage to get tickets for Stuttgart....) - and have been wondering if anyone could tell me in advance about the particularities of his version - I am sure he has added some "typical" or unusual elements, or maybe given the whole story a new twist?
Would be very grateful for any hints or reviews...
Thanks in advance!

As far as I know (I've never seen it, but read about it) this is a traditional production (!!!!!). He may have choreographed the character dancers himself, but I've never read about any psychological "enhancements."

Has anyone seen it? (And of course, you'll tell us about it, I hope.)

all i can recall specifically is the 'flood' that engulfs the close of the last act, done way back when it came to nyc whenever that was, w/ yards & yards of blue silk.
