Giselle

Dnepropetrovsk Academic Ukrainian Music and Drama Theater named after T.G. Shevchenko Dnipro, st. Voskresenskaya, 5

Giselle is a ballet that has been gathering people in theaters around the world for almost two centuries. It's a good option to make an evening special, slow down a bit and switch from routine without any "five more minutes on the phone."

About the ballet "Giselle"

Adolphe Adam's Giselle is a fantasy ballet in two acts, first staged at the Paris Opera in 1841. Today, this production is considered one of the main stories of romantic ballet.

The plot is based on an old German legend about the Willis, girls who died before their wedding and now wander the night forest. It was this legend that poet Théophile Gautier reinterpreted for the stage, and composer Adolphe Adam created the music in just a week.

On the stage of the Dnipro Academic Opera and Ballet Theater, this story works not as a “classical lesson,” but as an opportunity to exhale and immerse yourself in the world of music, movement, and emotions without unnecessary words. Here, you can simply watch, listen, and allow yourself an evening without rushing.

Why you should add it to your plans

  • to go out and spend the evening more beautifully than “with a TV series in the background”;
  • for a date, a special occasion or a joint cultural outing;
  • if you want to replenish your treasure trove of memories with classics that still sound modern because of their emotions;
  • to switch off from everyday life for a few hours and give your head a break.

VIP Intermission — a special vibe of the evening

An additional VIP Intermission service is available as part of the performance. This format is for those who want to not just “go to the ballet,” but make the evening more comfortable and leisurely.

During the intermission, you can spend time in the Green Room lounge area on the third floor of the theater. No queues for the buffet, no searching for a table or a free seat in the lobby. The VIP format includes desserts, light snacks, hot and cold drinks - all included in the price of special VIP tickets.

Also, viewers with VIP tickets will have the opportunity to chat with the theater artists and take a photo as a souvenir. A good option for a special evening, a gift for loved ones, or just a desire to spend time a little more beautifully than usual.
