A heartbreaking ballet classic is on its way to Dandenong.
The Australian Ballet is bringing Giselle to the Drum Theatre stage at 7.30pm on Wednesday 5 and Thursday 6 July.
Giselle premiered in Paris, France, in 1841 and is a tragic story of love, madness and betrayal.
It follows a village girl who falls in love with a man who is not all he seems and dies of a broken heart when she discovers his deception.
She is transformed into a spirit, is reunited with her lover in a forest haunted by the ghosts of jilted women and must dance with him until dawn to save his life.
The show will be part of the Australian Ballet Regional Tour.
Artistic director David McAllister said Giselle was a ballet that all dancers loved dancing.
