Varna International Ballet performs Swan Lake to Tchaikovsky's score, from the palace ballroom to the moonlit lake, with the swan queen Odette and her dark double Odile danced by one ballerina. A romantic and fairly long classical ballet, it best suits older children and teenagers, and the 5.30pm start means a later finish.
