With its story of love, a betrayed village girl, ghosts and redemption, Giselle is the quintessential Romantic ballet and has remained a cornerstone of the classical repertory since its premiere in 1841. Giselle is one of the most challenging and demanding roles in the repertory and has always been a showcase for exceptional ballerinas.
