In the last week of May, Singaporeans will get a taste of St. Petersburg and Russian culture.  

For the first time, the 55-member St. Petersburg Ballet Theatre will present their full-length classic production of Pyotr Iyich Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake in the city-state.

A total of 8 performances will be held from May 28 till June 1, at the Sands Theatre, Marina Bay Sands.

The St. Petersburg Ballet Theatre was founded in 1994 by Konstantin Tachkin and has remained independent ever since. Its main aim is to deliver Russian classical ballet performances to international audiences.
