Diving into Swan Lake

What is it about Tchaikovsky’s iconic ballet “Swan Lake” that continues to fascinate choreographers, performers, and audiences alike? With Ballet West UK staging the Asian premiere of the show here in Malaysia, we speak to lead dancers Jonathan Barton and Natasha Watson about their roles and the experience of bringing one of the most popular ballets of all time to the stage. The show will be staged from Aug 24 to 26, and Aug 31 to Sept 7.
