Giselle is one of the most iconic classical ballets of all time. The tragedy of Giselle is told through delicate yet demanding choreography. This performance features intricate pointe work and sweeping, ghost-like movements that evoke an otherworldly sense of beauty.
Forsaken by her love, the beautiful-but-bereft Giselle succumbs to madness and a broken heart. Yet even in death, she offers forgiveness to her faithless suitor in an effort to save him from the vengeful Willis. Artistic Director Tim O’Keefe presents his brilliant interpretation of this iconic masterpiece.
In Dallas, all performances of Giselle will feature live orchestration from The Dallas Opera Orchestra, conducted by Michael Moricz. Giselle is being performed Dallas at Winspear Opera House May 16-18. For tickets visit texasballettheater.org
