GISELLE - A 182 YEAR OLD LOVE STORY
There is a reason Giselle has lasted 182 years! Make sure you get your tickets to this exquisite production!

Afternoon leads are DANB Principal Dancers Carla Amancio and Tales Ribeiro with the evening leads Philadelphia Ballet's Oksana Maslova and Stirling Baca.

A tender moment in Act I, "he loves me, he loves me not" with Giselle plucking flower petals. How many years ago did young girls begin this action? We know for sure 182 as it is noted action in Act I!
