A couple weeks ago I saw Don Quixote at the Mariinsky Theater - breathtaking!!!
They were a GREAT leading couple - she had so much energy and made the stage shine
And this guy stole my heart - he was one of the most charismatic dancers I've seen. He could also leap like 6 feet straight into the air.
In the main lobby they had this miniature version of the theater. Even the ceiling was painted like the real one!
It was incredible to see a ballet in a city that's known for it. I was supposed to see Sleeping Beauty this coming Sunday, but we scheduled a trip to Novgorod (first city in Russia) instead. I guess it's an okay trade-off, but the ballet here is absolutely magical.
