I saw it years ago and it was brilliant!

saw it just under a month ago, it was great, v. imaginative, mix of traditional ballet and more modern dance.

bloody brilliant. A contemporary take on it, so not all classical ballet and there's contemp thrown in. Overall it's a fantastic thing to see, I wanna see it again!!

ooh yes. understood the story much better than in the pretty girly version.

I saw it last week and thought it was wonderful, amazing dancing and very humourous in places. I much prefer the male swans to the classical girls en pointe.

Saw it a few years ago, loved it! But then am not a very traditional ballet fan. Also saw his Dorian Gray a few months ago and that was brilliant, although a much darker ballet, not necessarily easy viewing.

have seen twice, completely bowled over. Although the music would probably do that for me no matter what choreography.
