The young peasant girl Giselle dies when she learns that the man she loves, Albrecht, has betrayed her. Against her own will, she joins the wilis, vengeful spirits who now turn against Albrecht and condemn him to dance until he dies of exhaustion. This treasure of romantic ballet is one of the oldest and greatest in classical repertoire, touching upon the great romantic themes: a doomed love affair ending in tragedy, a dive into fantasy and ultimate redemtion through the power of love. The Bolshoi is renowned for its intimate and emotionally intense interpretation of this beloved drama.

SVETLANA ZAKHAROVA

Prima Ballerina of the Bolshoi Ballet

Star of Bolshoi’s GISELLE on Sunday, October 11

Why did I choose Gaynor Minden? For me, the most important things about dance are my emotions and my technique. The technique must be perfect, the movement free and light; the audience must never see the work behind the dance — just the dance itself. That is why I choose Gaynor Minden: to be confident and free.

Svetlana Zakahrova has been wearing Gaynor Minden pointe shoes since 2011
