This fully staged performance by The Australian Ballet of one act from Stephen Baynes' Swan Lake will be narrated by one of the characters and accompanied by a trio of musicians from the Queensland Symphony Orchestra.

Commissioned especially for the company's 50th anniversary, Baynes' new production of the world's most beloved ballet has everything a good Swan Lake should -- a troubled prince, an enchanted swan, a malevolent magician and doomed love. Baynes is renowned for his intense musicality and classical purity, and together with designer Hugh Colman, he's created a ballet of unprecedented magnificence.
