While Russia dominates the news these days with talks of hacking and the tampering of the 2016 election, many folks may not know the huge debt the arts owes the Russian people who have given us some of the world's greatest works of art from fine art to theater to dance.
Playing to that deep Russian legacy comes a special night of dance from the
Grand Rapids Ballet featuring four one act ballets including “Flames of Paris Pas de Deux,” “Raymonda Pas de Dix,” “Tchaikovsky Pas de Deux,” and “Giselle Act II.”
This special program is also a chance to see one last time dancer Dawnell Dryja Black on stage. Black has performed 15 seasons with our local Grand Rapids Ballet and will be retiring after her final performance on October 13, so do not delay in getting ticket for what will be a thrilling night of Russian Ballet.
