GISELLE

Grand Royal Classic Ballet GISELLE

Ballet Giselle belongs to the most significant works of the Romantic era – it is a story of love, betrayal and forgiveness taking place between the world of the living and the supernatural realm of ghosts.

The Grand Royal Classic Ballet presents a production faithful to the classical tradition, which at the same time emphasizes the strong emotionality and psychological depth of the main characters.

In the first act, we meet Giselle – a young, sensitive girl in love with the mysterious Albrecht. The idyll of a rural village gradually crumbles when hidden truths come to light. The dramatic finale of the first act reveals both the fragility of innocence and the strength of emotions that lead to a tragic turning point.

The second act introduces us to the dark world of villas – the spirits of betrayed women who rule by inexorable law. Giselle here stands out not as a victim, but as a being filled with tenderness and the ability to forgive. Poetics of movement, precise choreography and an atmosphere of cool, hypnotic beauty create a touching climax to the story.

Performed by the Grand Royal Classic Ballet, "Giselle" retains its classical form while underlining the most important: the truthfulness of emotions, the drama of human choices and the extraordinary power of forgiveness.

Get carried away with one of the most beautiful ballet stories of all time.
