Russian National Ballet to Bring Gala Program to Van Wezel, 3/3

The sensational Russian National Ballet present their Gala Program featuring Pas de deux movements from some of ballet's most beloved works, including Sleeping Beauty, Cinderella, Don Quixote, Dying Swan, and Romeo and Juliet. The performance will be at the Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall on Tuesday March 3, at 8pm.

The Russian National Ballet Theatre was founded in Moscow during the transitional period of Perestroika in the late 1980s, when many of the great dancers and choreographers of the Soviet Union's ballet institutions were exercising their new-found creative freedom by starting new, vibrant companies dedicated not only to the timeless tradition of classical Russian Ballet but to invigorate this tradition as the Russians began to accept new developments in the dance from around the world.
