International Ballet – La Sylphide
Apr 22 @ 7:30 pm
Peace Center--Gunter Theatre

La Sylphide (translated to “The Sylph”) is a magical morality tale about the pitfalls of temptation.  Set in Scotland, the ballet tells of James, his fiancé Effie, and a beautiful Sylph who first appears as a dream, ultimately luring James into the woods, abandoning friends and his bride.  La Sylphide features exquisite classical technique, intriguing characters, and leaves questions for the audience to ponder about the choices we make. La Sylphide is one of the oldest full length classical ballets still in repertoires of major ballet companies across the globe.

 

International Ballet’s La Sylphide will feature Greenville Native Ekaterina Nechayeva as the Sylph.
