Dance Spotlight | Viktorina Kapitonova and Ji Young Chae on Swan Lake

Boston Ballet principal dancers Ji Young Chae and Viktorina Kapitova discuss their experiences performing in Swan Lake. They share insights on their favorite role, the most challenging aspects of dancing in the ballet, and what they hope the audience takes away from the performance. Highlighting their passion for the production and the dual roles of Odette (White Swan) and Odile (Black Swan), the dancers emphasize the technical and emotional demands of the iconic ballet.
