Crown Ballet Presents Giselle- Live on Stage at Galashiels Volunteer Hall

Crown Ballet Presents Giselle – A Romantic Ballet in which love triumphs over betrayal.

Music by Adolphe Adam

After last year’s sell out performance of Swan Lake, Crown Ballet returns this year to Galashiels to enchant you with the delightful production of Giselle.

The gravely ill peasant girl Giselle falls in love with the handsome Prince Albrecht, who has been unfaithful to her. When jealous rivals claim her fiancé, the heartbreak is too much for her to bear. Weakened by her ill health and driven mad by despair, Giselle takes her own life.

After her funeral Prince Albrecht visits her grave. The spirits of women betrayed before their wedding days return to take revenge on their philandering fiancés by dancing them to death. Only Giselle’s powerful love saves the remorseful Albrecht from this cruel fate, proving that love can conquer all – even death.

This is an opportunity for ballet lovers to see Giselle as never before and remains one of the most celebrated classical ballets.

A wonderful evening out and memories which you will cherish long after the final curtain falls!
