A Tchaikovsky ballet—whether Swan Lake, The Nutcracker or Sleeping Beauty—is an experience hard to beat. The music is sensational, and the lyrical melodies become even more impressive when ballerinas take to the stage. These ballets, however, are a grand spectacle that do not come around very often. But thanks to Candlelight Ballet, Sydneysiders can get a taste of the magic in some of the city’s most emblematic buildings.
In enchanting candlelit surrounds, ballerinas will grace audiences with their remarkable talent at upcoming Candlelight Ballet performances. Joined by the Ben Adler Quartet, they will plié, pirouette and elancer during select songs to dazzle and delight.
Candlelight Ballet returns to Sydney and tickets are available now.
The mesmerizing display of music and dance will take over the Hayden Orpheum Picture Palace with renditions of Tchaikovsky’s Swan Lake, Sleeping Beauty and The Nutcracker Suite by the Ben Adler Quartet as well as a special performance of Borodin’s String Quartet No 2.
Again, a ballerina will take to the stage and perform at select moments throughout the night to accompany the stirring music and dazzle us with graceful movements as candles flicker all around.
Really, we can’t think of a better way to spend an evening than with a magical night of Candlelight Ballet unfolding before you. Sit back, relax and be enchanted by the music and dance of arguably the world’s greatest ballet as well as select pieces from other favourites!
Candlelight Ballet takes place twice each night.
