Nightfall Ballet

Algae and toe shoes, feathers and tutusBehind the gilded doors of the Paris Op?ra Ballet, two best friends, Madeleine and Lucie, dance the night away. But at first morning light, their human bodies transform into webbed feet, billed lips, and wings. When enchanted, the girls are the Bois de Boulogne's famous black and white swans. For ninety years, they've floated in the lake, unable to secure true love and break the curse of the evil Dance Master. However, when Madeleine meets Ryan Young, everything changes. Suddenly, Madeleine wins a coveted solo spot in an upcoming ballet, and her growing relationship with Ryan means she's on the verge of breaking the enchantment. But doing so means leaving the Bois, Ballet, and Lucie forever - something she's not sure she can bear. Desperate to not lose the best friend, Lucie will do anything to keep Madeleine with her - including binding herself eternally to the Dance Master. She'll stop at nothing - even if it means breaking Madeleine's heart and dooming her to life as a swan forever; even if she ruins her own chance at happiness. In this retelling of Swan Lake, the lines of good and bad blur as Madeleine and Lucie choose between true love and true friendship.
