Did you know? 🦢

When Swan Lake first premiered in 1877, audiences and critics didn’t love it the way they do today.

Tchaikovsky’s music was considered too dramatic at the time, and many dancers found the choreography difficult to perform.

It wasn’t until years later, after Tchaikovsky passed away, that choreographer Marius Petipa reimagined the ballet into the iconic production the world fell in love with. ✨

Now, more than a century later, Swan Lake is still one of the most celebrated ballets ever created.

Experience it live this June 16th and 17th with San Pedro City Ballet at Armstrong Theatre.

It’s never just the music… it’s the story that stays with you.

We talked with the performers of Because You’re Mine — Charles Evans Jr. and Caitie Grady.

They shared how after a show, someone told them that Johnny Cash will always remind him of his grandmother getting him ready in the kitchen before school.

That’s what this music does. It brings people back to moments they’ll never forget.

If you love music that brings back memories, this one’s worth seeing.
