Set against the backdrop of the magical White Nights Festival in St. Petersburg, SACRED STAGE explores what the Mariinsky Theater has meant to Russian and Soviet culture and how it has somehow maintained its artistic excellence through tumultuous times.

In this production of the best loved classical ballet 'Swan Lake' the naturally gifted Yulia Makhalina dances the challenging role of Odette/Odile while the part of Prince Siegfried is danced by Igor Zelensky. This classic Kirov production includes the familiar happy ending in the final act where Siegfried fights and ultimately defeats the evil magician von Rothbart and at dawn is reunited with Odette.
