Photo Flash: SWAN LAKE at Sadler's Wells Theatre

From the imagination of one of Ireland's foremost dance and theatre-makers, Sadler's Wells Associate Artist Michael Keegan-Dolan, comes a magical new adaptation of one of the most famous ballets in the world, Swan Lake.

Performed by a company of fourteen world-class performers including actor Mikel Murfi, this new production is interwoven with storytelling, song and live music. Dublin based band Slow Moving Clouds has created a new score, combining Nordic and Irish traditional music with minimalist and experimental influences.

With beautiful dancing and powerful imagery, this new Swan Lake is rooted in the Midlands of Ireland, where ancient mythology and the modern world collide.

"It's a show of terrible beauty and extraordinary craft."
