ABT’s ‘Giselle’ Returns to Segerstrom Center This Summer

July 02, 2025

Segerstrom Center for the Arts welcomes the return of American Ballet Theatre’s Giselle this summer, marking the company’s first Orange County summer engagement in more than 15 years. The beloved classic will be performed five times July 24–27, 2025. Tickets are available now at scfta.org.

Staged by Kevin McKenzie with choreography after Jean Coralli, Jules Perrot and Marius Petipa, and set to music by Adolphe Adam, Giselle is a two-act ballet that explores themes of unrequited love, heartbreak, and redemption. The timeless story follows a young peasant girl who falls for a nobleman disguised as a villager. When his betrayal is revealed, Giselle dies of a broken heart—but ultimately returns to save him from supernatural revenge.

American Ballet Theatre’s internationally acclaimed dancers bring the mystery and ethereal beauty of Giselle to life in what The New York Times calls “[ABT’s] best production of a 19th century ballet classic.”
