Please note this is a replacement season for The Happy Prince.
First love, betrayal, heartache and forgiveness…Giselle is a roller coaster romance and one of the most famous ballets in the world.
This iconic Romantic ballet has stood the test of time, not just because of the otherworldly beauty, with its ethereal ghosts floating through the forest, but because of the universal passion and drama of its storyline.
A young girl falls madly in love with a duke in disguise. When she realises his identity, the shock sends her mad and she dies. Raised from her grave by the vengeful Queen of the Wilis, she must forgive her lover and save him from death.
