ACTO I El príncipe Siegfried está celebrando su cumpleaños con la corte bajo la mirada manipuladora de Von Rothbart, ahora disfrazado adoptando una forma humana. La madre de Siegfried le entrega un regalo: la ballesta de su difunto padre. Ella decreta que él debe elegir una novia real en un baile en palacio que se celebrará en su honor la noche siguiente. ACTO II Benno, preocupado por el príncipe, ha seguido a Siegfried hasta un claro junto al lago. Anima al príncipe a regresar al palacio. Siegfried se resiste a mantener cualquier conversación en torno a su matrimonio. Solo de nuevo, Siegfried ve una bandada de cisnes volando por el cielo. Para su sorpresa, uno de ellos desciende y se transforma en una hermosa doncella, la princesa Odette. Odette le confía que es una víctima de la maldición de Von Rothbart, que la obliga a vivir de día como un cisne; sólo de noche puede volver a recuperar una forma humana. La maldición puede romperla únicamente alguien que no haya amado antes y que preste un juramento de amor imperecedero por ella. Aparece Von Rothbart y Odette le ruega que no haga daño al príncipe. Siegfried intenta disparar a Von Rothbart, pero Odette explica que la maldición no puede desaparecer si se mata al hechicero. Odette y el príncipe se declaran mutuamente su amor. Cuando rompe el día, Von Rothbart aleja a Odette de Siegfried y ella vuelve a convertirse en un cisne. ACTO III Von Rothbart recibe a los invitados reales que han viajado desde tierras lejanas al baile de palacio. Siegfried llega finalmente y su madre le ordena que elija una novia de entre cuatro princesas. Él baila a regañadientes con todas, pero se niega a escoger a una de ellas. Una fanfarria anuncia la llegada de una joven que no había sido invitada, Odile. Gracias a la magia de Von Rothbart, ella tiene un aspecto idéntico al de Odette. Siegfried no puede creer que haya llegado su amada y queda asombrado ante la belleza de Odile. 6 SUMMARY PROLOGUE Princess Odette is turned into a swan by the sorcerer Von Rothbart. ACT I Prince Siegfried is celebrating his birthday with the court, under the manipulative gaze of Von Rothbart, now disguised in human form. Siegfried’s mother presents him with a gift, the crossbow of his late father. She decrees that he must choose a royal bride at a palace ball to be held in his honour the following evening. ACT II Benno, concerned for the Prince, has followed Siegfried to a clearing by the lake. He urges the Prince to return to the palace. Siegfried resists all talk of marriage. Alone again, Siegfried sees a flock of swans flying high above. To his amazement, one lands and transforms into a beautiful maiden, the Princess Odette. Odette shares that she is a victim of Von Rothbart’s curse that compels her to live as a swan by day; only at night is she able to return to human form. The curse can be broken only by one who has never loved before and who pledges an oath of undying love to her. Von Rothbart appears and Odette begs him not to harm the Prince. Siegfried attempts to shoot Von Rothbart but Odette explains that the curse cannot be lifted if the sorcerer is killed. Odette and the Prince express their love for each other. As dawn breaks, Von Rothbart draws Odette away from Siegfried and she changes back into a swan. ACT III Von Rothbart welcomes the royal guests who have travelled from distant lands to the palace ball. Siegfried finally arrives and is ordered by his mother to choose a bride from four beautiful princesses. Reluctantly he dances with each in turn but refuses to make a choice. A fanfare signals the entrance of an uninvited guest, Odile. By Von Rothbart’s magic, she appears identical to Odette. Siegfried cannot believe that his beloved has arrived. Siegfried is dazzled by Odile’s beauty. Odette, appearing as a vision, tries in vain to warn Siegfried of the deceit. Sensing nothing wrong, Siegfried chooses Odile for his bride and promises a vow of marriage and eternal love. Von Rothbart 7 Odette, que se aparece como una visión, intenta en vano advertir a Siegfried del engaño. No percibiendo nada raro, Siegfried elige a Odile como su prometida y realiza un juramento de matrimonio y amor eterno. Von Rothbart revela su identidad y se hace con el control del palacio. Abatido por la pena, Siegfried regresa al lago. ACTO IV Junto al lago, los cisnes esperan ansiosamente el regreso de Odette. Ella aparece, con el corazón roto, y les habla de la traición de Siegfried. Condenada a permanecer como un cisne para siempre, la única salida es la muerte: para liberarse de la maldición, debe perecer en las olas del lago. La desesperada búsqueda de Siegfried en medio de la tormenta concluye a orillas del lago. Implora el perdón de Odette. Aparece Von Rothbart y recuerda a Siegfried su juramento. Con su suerte sellada, Odette se apresura hacia la roca y se sumerge en el lago. Por medio de su sacrificio, el poder del hechicero queda destruido y Siegfried se queda acunando el cuerpo sin vida de la princesa. 8 reveals his true identity and takes control of the palace. Grief stricken, Siegfried returns to the lake. ACT IV By the lake, the swans anxiously await Odette’s return. She appears, heartbroken, and tells them of Siegfried’s betrayal. Doomed to remain a swan forever, the only escape is death – to be free from the curse, she must perish in the waves of the lake. Siegfried’s desperate search through the storm ends at the lakeside. He begs Odette’s forgiveness. Von Rothbart appears and reminds Siegfried of his vow.

  • Leanne Benjamin Built for Ballet
    October 2021 M October 2021 Melbourne Books LEANNE BENJAMIN An Autobiography BUILT FOR BALLET LEANNE BENJAMIN WITH SARAH CROMPTON This autobiography by Leanne Benjamin with Sarah Crompton reveals the extraordinary life and career of one of the world’s most important ballet dancers of the past 50 years. Leanne was born and raised in the central Queensland town of Rockhampton in a tightly knit hard-working Catholic family. At the age of 3 she attended her first ballet class and at 16 she was accepted into the Royal Ballet School in London and at 18 danced her first leading role on the Royal Opera House stage in the school’s performance of Giselle that catapulted her to a stellar career. The book takes you behind the scenes to find a real understanding of the pleasure and the pain, the demands and the intense commitment it requires to become a ballet dancer. It’s a book for ballet-lovers which will explain from Benjamin’s personal point of view, how ballet has changed and is changing. It’s a book of history: she was first taught by the people who created ballet in its modern form and now she works with the dancers of today, handing on all she has known and learnt. But it’s also a book for people who are just interested in the psychology of achievement, how you go from being a child in small town Rockhampton in the centre of Australia to being a power on the world’s biggest stages — and how an individual copes with the ups and downs of that kind of career.
