THE BOLSHOI Ballet's production of the classic ballet Giselle, directed by Yuri Grigorovich and featuring music by Adolphe Adam, will be broadcast live in HD from Moscow to The Eye Cinema, Wellpark, this Sunday at 4pm.
Young Giselle dies when she learns that the man she loves, Albrecht, has betrayed her. Against her own will, she joins the wilis, vengeful spirits who now turn against Albrecht and condemn him to dance until he dies of exhaustion. Touching upon the great romantic themes: a doomed love affair ending in tragedy, a dive into fantasy and ultimate redemption through the power of love, this ballet is one of the oldest and greatest in classical repertoire.
Early arrival and booking is advised. For more information see www.eyecinema.ie or call 091 - 780078.
