Odile

Odile is a character from the ballet "Swan Lake," created by composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky. She is the evil sorcerer's daughter who deceives the protagonist, Prince Siegfried, by disguising herself as Odette, the innocent Swan Queen. Odile's role is crucial because it highlights themes of temptation and betrayal. Her iconic dance, often referred to as the "Black Swan" pas de deux, showcases her charm and cunning, contrasting with Odette's purity. The character embodies duality, representing both darkness and allure within the story, making her a significant figure in ballet and classical storytelling.
