The dazzling supernatural tale!
Dating from 1836, La Sylphide is of the world's oldest known ballets to have survived intact. An exquisitely heart-rending story of love, magic, and the bittersweet tragedy shared by a mortal and a fairy, prepare to be swept away by this timeless and captivating tale by August Bournonville, with music from Herman Severin Lovenskiold as the Houston Ballet presents it alongside Sparrow, the much-anticipated ballet set to the songs of Simon and Garfunkel by Stanton Welch.
What is the story of La Sylphide?
Whilst dozing in his hall on the eve of his wedding, James, a young and handsome Scotsman attracts the attention of a mysterious Sylph, who quickly falls for him but disappears as he awakes. Distracted James is confronted with his fiance Effie who begs him to ask the witch 'Old Madge' their fortunes. But Madge's predictions do not please him, she foretells his love for the Sylph and he throws her out of the hall, much to Effie's delight.
As the marriage goes ahead, the Sylph once again chooses her chance to interrupt and runs away with the ring, tempting the captivated James into the magical woodland realm towards love, adventure, and death...
