Royal Ballet Principal Marianela Nuñez performs the Act I finale in Peter Wright's production of Giselle. Book now: Giselle is the quintessential Romantic ballet. It transformed the dance world when it was first performed in Paris in 1841 and remains at the centre of the classical repertory. The role of Giselle provides a dancer with many technical and dramatic challenges, from the character's early love to her poignant descent into madness and final gesture of forgiveness from beyond the grave. With its combination of memorable story and exquisite choreography, Giselle is the perfect way to discover classical ballet.
