ACT I A meadow near the Castle. Afternoon. Prince Siegfried has organized a hunting party to ce lebrate his twenty-first birthday. The peasants of the district have been given a holiday and have arranged a picnic which the Prince has promised to attend. The picnic is interrupted by the arrival of the Princess-Mother who reminds her son that it is his duty at his coming-of-age ball to choose a bride from one to six eligible Prin­ cesses. As the day draws to a close, the peasants take their leave, and the Prince, sad at the thought of his carefree youth slipping from him, is roused out of his mood by Benno, who has sighted a flight of swans. The Prince, deciding the night is still to be enjoyed, orders pursuit, and the hunters leave.

ACT II Some hours later. By the Lake. 1. First the hunters and then the Prince arnve. The swans have eluded them, and t he Pri nce declares he wishes

Swan Lake-Act American Ba I let Theatre

A GYPSIE IN BROOKLYN In the program that was pub I ished for American Ballet Theatre's per­ formances at Lincoln Center in July, Walter Terry referred to Ballet Theatre as a "gypsy"-a company without a home base, and as such, unique among the great ballet compan1es of the world. This gypsy heritage makes the 32 performance engagement at the Academy of Music this season all the more auspicious. Never before has Ballet Theatre played so long a season here, and, rarely, has the Academy presented so many contmuous performances by a single group or company in its llO year history. It is hoped that these performances will become an annual holiday event in Brooklyn, and that Ballet Theatre and its directors, Lucia Chase and Ol1ver Smith (himself a Brooklyn resident), will look on the Academy as the1r permanent home in New York. Last month Clive Barnes in The New York Times referred to the Academy of Mus1c as "the dance ce nter of the entire world." The Academy's current Festival of Dance 68-69, including the recently announced resident companies of Merce Cunningham, Alvin Ailey, and the possible creation of a new ballet company under the artistic direction of Eliot Feld, lend more than credence to Mr. Barnes statement. With the annual participation of Ballet Theatre in this festival and that of other ballet companies, foreign and native, the Academy of Music can continue to hold strong claim to being the international center for dance- modern and classical. € B RO OKLYN ACADEMY OF MUSIC DECEMBER 1968 "BEYOND TECHNIQUE"

to go no farther but urges the others to continue. Left alone, he suddenly sees a magnificent Swan in f light. His enthusiasm is again aroused and he carefully takes aim. To his astonishment, the bird transforms into a most beautiful girl, and he withdraws into the trees to observe her. Un­ able to restrain his curiosity, he revea ls himself, only to startle and frighten her. He assures her he will do her no harm and asks her to explain the marvel he has just seen. Impressed by his gentleness, she unburdens the story of her plight. She tells him she is a Princess of high birth who fell under the spell of an evi l sorcerer, and how her fate is to be a Swan; and only in the hours of darkness may she assume her human gu ise. Indeed, this very lake is filled with her mother's tears. She tells him she is condemned for eternity, and only if a virgin youth swears eternal fidelity to her and marries her can she find release. Only then can the spell be broken. But if he should forswear her, then she must be a Swan forever. Siegfried, instantly overcome by love, declares he is indeed that youth and wi II be fa ithfu I to her forever. At that moment, the sorcerer appears. The Prince in his passion reaches for his crossbow but Od ette immediately protects the sorcerer with her body, for she knows that if he is killed before the spel l is broken, she too w ill die. The sorcerer disappears, and she slips away from the Prince into the forest. 2. Benno discovers a flock of swans and immediately summons the hunting party for the sport. The Prince's timely arrival prevents the shooting of the enchanted maidens. He tells them what he has learned and suggests that they return to the Castle. 3. Now Odette and Siegfried are alone. Siegfried realizes his destiny is changed. Dawn approaches and Odette is compelled by the spe ll to return to her guise as a Swan. Siegfried is left distraught.

ACT Ill The next night. The Great Hall. Guests assemble for the birthday ball from many roya i houses, each bringing a Princess eligible for the Prince's hand in marriage. As the evening continues, the Prince sinks more into despair at the choice he will have to make. At the moment of decision, a fanfare announces the arrival of the Baron von Rothbart and his daughter Odile, disguised as Odette. The Prince, being convinced he is with his beloved, declares to al l his true fidelity. Too late, he realizes he is the victim of a terrible plot. He rushes into the night.

ACT IV The lakeside. That night. The Swan-maidens are anxious at the dis­ appearance of Odette. She returns and tel ls of Rothb ~:trt'~ treach~ry; before dawn, she intends to die. A great storm rages. S1gfned burstmg into the glade, discovers her and begs her forgiveness. As dawn ap­ proaches, Rothbart appears aga in in his disguise as a sorcerer. Od~tte tells Siegfried she must kill herself, or she will forever be a Swan. Sieg­ fried knowing t'lat his destiny is forever changed by Odile, declares he wil l die with her, thus breaking the power of von Rothbart. The l ove~s throw themselves into the lake. Rothbart is mortally struck and h1s power ended.
