Giselle

South Africa’s internationally renowned choreographer, Dada Masilo, presents her fearless re-imagining of the iconic classic, Giselle. Opening in a lively South African village, Masilo’s Giselle tells the story of a trusting peasant girl who is thrust into a world of betrayal and shame when her lover rejects her.

Performing in the title role, Masilo brings her stunning high-speed style to the stage. Fusing ballet, contemporary and traditional Tswana dance, Giselle is powered by a hauntingly beautiful score from South African composer Philip Miller who combines classical strings with African percussion and voice.
