Orpheus and Eurydice fall in love in a world where warmth and security are scarce. When Eurydice is drawn into Hades’ industrial underworld, Orpheus follows with a song and an unlikely plan. Their story intertwines with Hades and Persephone’s troubled marriage in a musical retelling of the Greek myths.
A baker and his wife venture into the woods to lift a witch’s curse, crossing paths with Cinderella, Jack, and Little Red Riding Hood. Each has a wish to pursue. Their stories become entangled, and getting what they want brings consequences that no one can face alone.
Giselle falls for a young man she believes to be a fellow villager, unaware that he is a nobleman with another life. When the deception is revealed, their story passes into a supernatural realm ruled by the Wilis. Adolphe Adam’s score accompanies a ballet about betrayal, devotion, and mercy.
Prince Tamino sets out with the birdcatcher Papageno to find Pamina, guided by a magical flute and a promise from the Queen of the Night. Their journey reveals that appearances can deceive. Mozart’s opera mixes comedy, romance, and ceremonial trials as its characters seek love and wisdom.
The fairy Carabosse curses Princess Aurora, but the Lilac Fairy softens the spell into a sleep lasting a hundred years. A prince’s journey offers the possibility of an awakening. Tchaikovsky and Petipa’s fairytale ballet brings together courtly celebration, opposing magical powers, and a story of enduring hope.
Returning from exile, Sweeney Todd opens a barber shop above Mrs. Lovett’s struggling pie business. His search for revenge against a corrupt judge draws them into a macabre partnership. Stephen Sondheim and Hugh Wheeler’s dark musical combines obsession, injustice, and unsettling humour in nineteenth-century London.

Into the Woods is the one I would revisit first. It changes so much depending on when you see it.
Giselle belongs here. The second act has exactly that feeling of a familiar story turning strange.
