Back by popular demand, Huntsville Ballet Company presents Swan Lake accompanied by the Huntsville Ballet Orchestra, in April, at the Mark C. Smith Concert Hall to close out the Alluring 61st season. The encore performance features the expansion of Tchaikovsky’s spellbinding masterpiece through the addition of Act III to last season’s entrancing performance of Acts II and IV. The addition of Act III includes the alluring Black Swan Pas de Deux featuring the technical feat of 32 fouettés, which is one of the most technically challenging variations for a ballerina.
