Cast Announced For 'Educational Programme-First Steps: Swan Lake'

Educational Programme is a new project, allowing participants to experience the art of ballet and the appeal of the live stage. This time, we take a look at the stage for Swan Lake.
Interspersed with narrative explanations about the mime often used in Wright's productions as well as story development, and more, it successfully delivers the concentrated charm of Swan Lake with a focus on Act 3. This programme is for children and first-time ballet viewers to gain an awareness of the appeal of ballet and theatre and an appreciation for the stage.
