In an Indian Classical reimagination of ballet 'Swan Lake', the Black Swan returns to confront the White Swan for the final time. Pavitra Kumar and Adya Das, dancing Bharatanatyam and Odissi respectively, star in 'The Black Swan's Renaissance'. Witness who will come out victorious in an artful display of good vs evil (or so we think).
Immerse yourself in the world of Swan Lake and reimagine this winter season with us 🦢
