One of the world’s oldest surviving ballets and the first major ballet of the Romantic era, La Sylphide is the story of James, a young Scotsman. On the eve of his wedding day he falls in love with a sylph, a beautiful fairy of the forest. With a glorious score from Herman Severin Løvenskiold and August Bournonville’s original choreography, the story unravels in a mist of uncertainty as an evil witch vows to keep James from true love of any kind.
