La Sylphide | Bolshoi Ballet 2018 🌫️ A Poetic Tragedy Between Worlds

🌫️ Step into a world between dreams and waking… where love vanishes like mist at dawn.
In this breathtaking 2018 production of La Sylphide, the Bolshoi Ballet takes us deep into the heart of one of the most hauntingly beautiful stories in the ballet repertoire.

💔 A romantic tragedy born in the heart of the forest, La Sylphide tells the story of a young man, James, torn between the tangible love of his fiancée and the ethereal allure of a winged spirit. Blinded by obsession, he gives up everything to pursue the impossible—and loses it all.

✨ Featuring choreography by Johan Kobborg (after Bournonville) and a deeply expressive performance by Anastasia Stashkevich as the doomed Sylphide, this production captures the raw ache of desire, illusion, and loss.
