Swan Lake

Performed at The Bolshoi Ballet in Moscow, Russia

Went to Theatre N with Kathryn to see Swan Lake. Needless to say, it was stunning. The description of the final scene is one of the most poetic sentences I have ever read:

As dawn breaks, he finds himself alone on the empty banks of the lake of his dreams.

Every single word weaves together to form a beautifully tragic image that I could not stop thinking about for hours after the curtain came down.
