I thought the performance was very nice. My wife is actually the ballet fan, and she was quite impressed by the show. This was our first Goldstar performance, and everything went very smoothly. We went straight to will-call, and the tickets were given to us hassle free.
My husband and I loved the performance and were mesmerized by the dancers who told the story very well indeed. I would definitely go and see the Moscow Festival Ballet again if they were anywhere in our area.
Gorgeous costumes. Good dancers. Wasn't happy with choreography or telling of story. Didn't feel that the dancing effectively told the story.
