The new version, directed by maître Laura Alonso, features a prologue, two acts, and two scenes, maintaining a plot and sequence faithful to the expectations of the national audience. The Teatro de Variedades América, located in the Cuban capital, will host performances on the 15th and 16th of this month.

The company detailed that during the first performance, young dancers Lianet Sotolongo (Odette/Odile) and Marlon Hernández (Prince Siegfried) will debut in the lead roles. Meanwhile, on the 16th, these characters will be portrayed by Thalía Molina and Yerandy Tápanes, who previously premiered these roles during Prodanza's last season at the National Theater of Cuba.

Artistic and Technical Direction

The choreography presented by Prodanza is a version by its director, based on that of Alicia Alonso, which in turn was derived from the original choreography by Marius Petipa and Lev Ivanov.

The production is further enriched by the work of Dania Díaz, Gerner Garrido, and Luis Enrique Piñero. Abelardo Castini is responsible for the costume design, while Omar Figueredo handled the backdrop designs.
