Swan Lake has made me 1% more cultured!

Dear Diary,

Yesterday I went and watched Swan Lake by the WA Ballet Company. It was a last minute decision; two years ago I wanted to watch Dracula but alas, lockdowns meant that my ticket had to be cancelled, and so I exchanged them for a voucher that was valid for three years - and as a spur of the moment thing, decided to see what was on and found that Swan Lake was being performed!

I actually didn't know what it was about at all, and only skim read the synopsis. All I knew is that it had been interpreted into a WA specific context, and it was actually really interesting! Plus now I realise the "Swan Lake" music - before it had just always been stuff I'd heard but not known the origins, and now I know!

The performance was pretty amazing! Ballet takes so much strength, grace, and skill! Makes me miss my dancing days!

Maybe I'll book more theatre stuff next year!
