    The Russian State Ballet of Siberia

    Buxton Opera House, Buxton, Derbyshire

    Formed in 1981, the Russian State Ballet of Siberia has quickly established itself as one of Russia’s leading ballet companies and has built an international reputation for delivering performances of outstanding quality and unusual depth..

    The State Ballet returns to Buxton Opera House this January accompanied by the Russian State Ballet Orchestra.

    Sleeping Beauty

    Sleeping Beauty | Thursday 2 January, 7pm

    Every child’s favourite fairy tale, the classic story of love and innocence, mystery and magic set to Tchaikovsky’s sublime score. Stunning choreography, sumptuous costumes and wonderful sets form the fantasy world in which the Lilac Fairy struggles against the evil Carabosse.

    The Nutcracker

    The Nutcracker | Friday 3 January, 2.30pm & 7pm

    This most famous of fantasy ballets for all the family begins as night falls on Christmas Eve. As snowflakes fall outside, the warm glow of the open fire sends flickering shadows across the boughs of the Christmas tree and all the presents beneath. When midnight strikes we are swept away to a fairy-tale world where nothing is quite as it seems.

    Swan Lake

    Swan Lake | Saturday 4 January, 2.30pm & 7pm

    The greatest romantic ballet of all time is brought to life by Tchaikovsky’s haunting and unforgettable score. From the impressive splendour of the Palace ballroom to the moon-lit lake where swans glide in perfect formation, this compelling tale of tragic romance has it all.

    Tickets are priced at £35-£44 and discounts are available. To book, call our Box Office on 01298 72190 or buy online.
