Robert Hylton Urban Classicism
presents

Swan Breaks

A Dance Story of love and betrayal between the natural world, humans and technology, Swan Breaks is an adaptation of ballet classic Swan Lake. Hylton is the modern day Siegfried, bored with the same attention-seeking women he searches for his perfect virtual beauty. Hooked with his lust for Odette, he is dragged into a downward spiral of addictive love, masterminded by Rothbart. Who is she, Odette or Odile, a man made fantasy. Is this computer love gone wrong with the potential for reality in personal relationships present and future?

Supported by Laban, Southbank Centre, with collaboration from Product Design & Engineering and Rescen, Middlesex University.
