Inspired by Russian Ballet
Tonight, I was inspired by The State Ballet Theatre of Russia's performance of Swan Lake. They played here in KW at Centre in the Square.
All the dancers were great! I especially enjoyed the height the prince and gesture could get on thier jumps.
It was also fun to see their choreography to the same music my ballet line danced to last season.
This ballet comapny was founded by legendary dancer and former Prima Ballerina of The Bolshoi Theater Ballet, Maya Plissetskaya, The State Ballet Theater of Russia is now under the direction of award-winning dancer and Moiseyev dance company soloist Nikolay Anokhin, who presents one of the greatest classical ballets of all time.
This full-scale production, set to the music of Tchaikovsky and based on Russian folklore and German legend, follows a heroic young prince as he works to free the beautiful swan maiden from an evil spell. The State Ballet Theater of Russia presents 50 of Russia’s brightest ballet stars to bring this romantic tale of true love to glorious life!
I can't wait to see my next profesional ballet.
Here was my swan lake costume last year.
