Black and White

Sometimes a single second is enough… Black and White is essentially a modern version of the flagship of the classical repertoire – Swan Lake. It is a title that is one of the most performed ballets in the world. Our version, which was a great success in the USA, represents today. It is an attempt to approach this work to the younger generation from a different perspective, by denying all traditions and visually transforming Swan Lake as such. In the classical version of the ballet, the dominant characters are ballerinas (the main double roles of Odette – Odile), so it is mainly a statement of the female element. In our version, we offer a view of Swan Lake through the main character, Prince Siegfried, who is going through a difficult life situation associated with the treatment of a serious illness – cancer. Sometimes a second is enough – and life is turned upside down.
