The narrator introduced those present to the characters’ fates and the secrets of classical dance. This allowed the children to follow Odette’s story with understanding. The girl was enchanted by the sorcerer Rothbart and transformed into the Swan Queen; only the prince’s love could break the spell.
The members of the Forum Artis Foundation initiated the creation of ballet fairy tales for children. During the performance, young spectators not only discover new forms of art but also learn to understand them—and this is precisely the Foundation’s main goal. The youngest spectators thanked the performers with a storm of applause. There were also opportunities for group photos.
During the winter holidays, another ballet fairy tale, “The Nutcracker,” will be presented on the Forum stage. Details coming soon.
