Preparing for the Stage
Dancers of the English National Ballet prepare in the wings during a dress rehearsal of “Swan Lake” at London’s Coliseum on Aug. 3. Tchaikovsky’s music forms the basis of “Swan Lake,” one of the world’s most beloved ballets. It tells the story of Princess Odette, who under a sorcerers curse, is changed into a swan by day and can only return to her human form at night.
