With the storyline of broken love in a rural setting and supernatural spirits, this is a typical Romantic-era ballet. Many ballet techniques are displayed during the scenes of harvesting and the dance-until-death punishment from the Wilis, the spirits of maidens who died after being betrayed by their lovers.
Giselle is staged by Chloe Glemot and Yuki Hiroshige, two talented ballerinas who have appeared with HBSO in many performances.
Tickets are 300,000 to 650,000 VND (12.8-27.8 USD).
