"Anthony Dowell’s production... offers the ultimate classical experience, with the sights and sounds of a proud 19th century tradition running at full throttle. Fancy a romantic tragedy in a tutu? Then this is the ballet for you...The production as a whole is beautifully formed and dramatically convincing... And praise, too, for the corps, who made us feel the sorrow and anger of the swans’ collective misfortune." (The Times)
