Totally magnificent #ROHSwanLake from @TheRoyalBallet. Can't beat Carlos Acosta and Marianela Núñez for a tenner. Best bargain ever.

Nunez stunning. Acosta still got it. Swans beautiful. Avis deliciously evil. #ROHSwanLake

While it may be dated, threadbare, and very tacky, the RB's #ROHSwanLake is my absolute favourite (& not just because it has @balletboy09)

Outstanding dancing from Nunez and Acosta. Beautiful Swan Lake from the Royal Ballet. Not the most comfortable seats but good view.

@TheRoyalBallet Stunning pas de deux in Act 2 #rohswanlake by Nunez & Acosta. The most passionate performance of it I've ever seen.
