A Swan Lake like no other.

Experience the breathtaking artistry of Ballet Preljocaj, exclusive to Brisbane. Renowned for pushing the boundaries of ballet, France’s leading contemporary choreographer Angelin Preljocaj masterfully reimagines Swan Lake, transforming this classic tale of love, betrayal and seduction into a modern-day tragedy.

Known for their bold reimagining of classic ballet stories, Ballet Preljocaj brings this masterpiece to Australia for the first time. This groundbreaking adaptation features dramatic choreography, spectacular design and Tchaikovsky’s timeless score performed live by the Queensland Symphony Orchestra conducted by Johannes Fritzsch, combined with modern beats and contemporary arrangements.

Don’t miss this rare opportunity to witness this remarkable company, performing live and exclusive to Brisbane as part of QPAC’s 40th anniversary program, celebrating 40 years of curiosity, inclusion, gathering and stories.
