Giselle
Beautiful and haunting, Giselle is a luminous masterpiece of Romantic ballet.
21 June - 6 July, Playhouse QPAC
With the Camerata of St John’s, conducted by Andrew Mogrelia*
In the twilight spirit world of the vengeful Wilis, only Giselle’s undying love can protect Albrecht through their irresistible, deathly dance.
An exquisite, traditional ballet requiring exceptional technical and dramatic skills, this heart-rending tale of betrayal and forgiveness will touch your heart.
