Swan LakeABT OffStage: A 2020 Virtual Season

As the global health crisis made it impossible for our 80th Anniversary season at The Metropolitan Opera House to continue as planned, American Ballet Theatre OffStage: A 2020 Virtual Season brought artistry of ABT into homes everywhere.

Join us in celebrating the 20th Anniversary of Kevin McKenzie’s epic  Swan Lake. Of all the great classics performed today, Swan Lake remains the most beloved. This awe-inspiring production is set to Tchaikovsky’s glorious score and features the corps de ballet dancing in magical unison as majestic swans. Explore the Swan Lake program, including a spotlight on the 20th Anniversary of the production and a conversation with iconic ABT Swan Queens.
