Best of Russian Ballet Gala

This season, the Moscow Festival Ballet will commemorate its unparalleled commitment to classical work with this gala program, a celebration of choreography preserved by the company over the past five decades. The program will include Marius Petipa’s technically exuberant Paquita from the old Imperial Russian Ballet, the celebrated “Kingdom of the Shades” Grand Pas de Deux from La Bayadere, Michel Fokine’s unforgettable Dying Swan—choreographed for the great Anna Pavlova and set to Saint-Saens’ Le Cygne—and much more!
