The Performing Arts Center is pleased to welcome the Russian National Ballet in a performance of "The Sleeping Beauty" at 7:30 p.m. Monday, Feb. 4. Legendary Bolshoi principal dancer Elena Radchenko directs this timeless Marius Petipa classic.
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 to the timeless tradition of classical Russian Ballet, and invigorating this tradition with new developments in the dance from around the world.
