Cape Ballet Africa

SWAN LAKE

03 – 14 February 2027

A soaring love story

The world’s most loved and enduring ballet, Swan Lake, is presented by Cape Ballet Africa at Artscape Opera House this coming February.

A masterpiece that has captivated audiences for generations, Swan Lake remains the pinnacle of classical ballet – a timeless tale of love, magic, and sacrifice. Set to Tchaikovsky’s magnificent and soaring score, this breathtaking production weaves a story of passion, betrayal, and eternal devotion.

Prince Siegfried’s heart is captured by Odette, a princess cursed to live as a swan by day. Their fates entwine in a powerful struggle against evil, where love must prove stronger than the sorcery that seeks to tear them apart. Celebrated for artistic excellence and expressive storytelling, Cape Ballet Africa brings dramatic intensity and elegance to this cherished classic. Opulent sets, sumptuous costumes, and unforgettable choreography combine to create a ballet experience that will stir your soul and leave you breathless.

Experience the grandeur, grace, and emotional power of the Swan Lake production that swept up Johannesburg audiences in August 2026.
