Billyelliott Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 Not sure if this will work but had anyone seen this Chinese dancers version of swan lake that has been on face book ! It's certainly different and breathtaking if a little gymnastic ! http://blog.petflow.com/this-performance-has-left-millions-of-people-speechless-ive-never-seen-anything-like-it/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balletqs Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 I saw the whole thing at the opera house when they visited the uk. Incredible skill and precision! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan McNulty Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 I saw it at The Lowry a couple of years ago. It's enormous fun! The group that perform it have also toured as the Chinese State Circus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billyelliott Posted June 8, 2014 Author Share Posted June 8, 2014 Amazing ! Just when I thought that ballet could not invent anything else new for dancers to diversify into ! Would love to have seen the whole thing . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aileen Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Well, there's an unusual version of Swan Lake coming to Sadler's Wells next week: Dada Masilo, which is a company from South Africa. There are men in tutus and all sorts of references to Aids, gender etc. I'll report back after I see it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
