“Gorgeous, absorbing, and exquisitely chilling.” -WBUR
Tony Award winner Sonya Tayeh returns to the A.R.T. to bring the Academy Award-nominated psychological thriller Black Swan to the stage. Pressure builds, boundaries blur, and reality begins to slip as Nina strives to rise from the ballet corps to the lead role in Swan Lake. This bold new musical adaptation is a haunting exploration of ambition, power, and the cost of perfection.
“Undeniably impressive. Breathtaking choreography, striking visuals, and powerhouse performances.
Black Swan soars!” —Boston.com
Performed with Tayeh’s high-octane, genre-breaking choreography, Black Swan features a contemporary book by Guggenheim Fellow Jen Silverman and a score by Obie Award winner Dave Malloy that blends the melodies of Tchaikovsky with a throbbing electronic soundscape.
“The all-encompassing result is a thrillingly immersive experience and a bravura Black Swan.” —Broadway World
