For those with little girls in the house (or just ballet fans) ...
The State Ballet Theatre of Russia will perform "The Nutcracker" on Friday, Dec. 2, at 7:30 p.m. in Bloomsburg University's Haas Center for the Arts, Mitrani Hall. Part of BU's Celebrity Artist Series, tickets are $29.50 for adults and $16.50 for children.
It's possible that this show will be a sellout or near sellout, so if you're interested, spring for the tickets sooner rather than later.
This is the same company that performed "Sleeping Beauty" at BU last year. The troupe has performed in Africa, Asia, Europe and North America. Several of the dancers have been honored for their talents, including People's Artist of Russia Tatyana Frolova and Honored Artists of Russia Vladislav Ivanov, Mikhail Negrobov and Piotr Popov.
I'm a sucker for ballet. It was, along with fencing, one of my gym classes in college (there was a football player in the class) ... and they have some similarities. Ballet was also the one show I saw in my college's big auditorium. Now I have a little girl of my own who is very excited about this show. The photo is from the Arabian cocoa sequence, which happens to be my fav. — E.G.F.
