Swan Lake in Lindau: Tchaikovsky's Ballet Classic Breathing the Present
An evening for heart and senses: In the Stadttheater Lindau, the ballet classic Swan Lake meets the present. The production by Theater Trier, choreographed by Roberto Scafati, tells the story of Siegfried's coming of age – carried by Tchaikovsky's iconic score and a visual language that unites poetry and psychological precision.
A Stage Experience Between Dream and Reality
The staging allows fantasy and reality to flow into one another: Light moods carve figures from the twilight, the set design by Mona Hapke opens a magical lake as a projection surface for longings. The theater atmosphere invites silent breathing pauses and grand emotional arcs; costumed swans draw clear lines, while Rothbart's shadow sweeps through the space like a cold breeze.
Dramaturgy with Contemporary Beat
Scafati relocates Swan Lake into a coming-of-age panorama: Siegfried's departure from childhood, the vow to Odette, the seduction by Odile – everything follows a coherent dramaturgy that respects and refocuses classical motifs. The dance company forms precise ensembles, dynamic lifts, and breath work that translates the pulse of the music into visible movement.
Body Acting, Music as Motor
The dancers draw clear characters: noble in port de bras, precise in fouettés, expressive in pas de deux. Tchaikovsky's melodies unfold their acoustic brilliance – lyrical, darkly glowing, jubilant. Thus, a physical narrative theater emerges, whose audience reaction describes tense attention from the first note to the jubilant final applause.

The reactions of theater lovers are clear: Swan Lake enchants the audience.
