About

A Jacob’s Pillow & Mahaiwe Co-Presentation | 2020

Tchaikovsky’s essential masterpiece returns for a live broadcast of the most-beloved ballet in the classical canon. Technically challenging and filled with vibrant emotion, with a stunning and world-famous corps de ballet in perfect unison, the legendary love story between Prince Siegfried and the dual personalities Odette/Odile, born at the Bolshoi Theatre, is a must-see.

Celebrating the 10th anniversary of Bolshoi Ballet in Cinema, Jacob’s Pillow Scholars-in-Residence give pre-show talks tailored to each broadcast at cultural partner The Mahaiwe Performing Arts Center in Great Barrington. Most presentations are introduced by Brian Schaefer, a New York-based journalist who writes about dance, culture, and politics for a number of publications, including The New York Times.
