Official Event Listing

Special Presentation! Join us for a one-off screening of the first-ever “Filmed for Imax” classical ballet stage performance.

Filmed in ultra-high definition over the European summer, Nureyev’s classic moves from the stage to the big screen for an unprecedented visual and audio immersive experience.

Get swept away in the epic tale of Princess Odette (Sae Uen Park), cursed by the evil sorcerer Rothbart (Pablo Legasa) to transform into a swan each day. When Prince Siegfried (Paul Marque) falls in love with her, he vows to break the sorcerer’s spell. But can Odette and Siegfried find true love, or will betrayal and dark magic keep the lovers apart?
