St Petersburg Ballet treat at Montecasino

“When you dance, your purpose is not to get to a certain place on the floor. It’s to enjoy each step along the way,” said American philosopher Wayne Dyer.

Escape to the beauty and brilliance of ballet this month at the Teatro – and extend the experience with a special Montecasino show-and-stay package.

Russia’s critically acclaimed St Petersburg Ballet Theatre is performing two, full-length, Tchaikovsky favourites – the immortal love story Swan Lake from today to Tuesday and the magical story of The Nutcracker (September 22 to 24).

The popular show-and-stay packages allow out-of-towners and locals to enjoy a full night of entertainment – and include two top-price show tickets, an overnight stay and breakfast for two people sharing at one of Montecasino’s excellent hotels.

The packages at SunSquare Montecasino are from R2 530, at Southern Sun Montecasino from R2 870, and at the Palazzo from R3 010. The rates are valid from September 15 to 24.

Mike Page, GM of Montecasino, says: “We’re delighted to welcome the exceptional St Petersburg Ballet Theatre back to Montecasino – their stunning performances are always a treat for our theatre goers.

“We’re also pleased to be able to offer these excellent showand-stay deals to our guests, enabling people from all over the country to come and enjoy this exceptional genre of theatre.

“Our team are meticulous in securing the quality of events that maintain our reputation as Gauteng’s number one entertainment destination.”
