Why See Bolshoi Ballet: Giselle?

Russia's star-studded Bolshoi Ballet returns to the U.S to perform Giselle, one of the most romantic and visually striking works in the classical ballet repertoire.

A simple peasant girl who loves to dance falls head-over-heels in love for a dashing prince, who's in disguise. When she discovers his betrayal, her delicate heart stops - and never beats again. In the second act, her ghost, along with a host of vengeful spirits, haunts her beloved, ultimately transcending death with forgiveness.
