Kings of the Dance is the BEST dance event and I look forward to it coming around again. I only wish it would be more than once every 2 or 3 years. My only disappointment was that Leonid Sarafanov didn't perform in the NY leg of the tour.

I enjoyed the performance immensely, because these men are not merely kings of dance, but gods. City Center orchestra and front mezzanine are now great locations from which to see a dance performance.
Unfortunately, the choreography these masters had to perform ranged largely from amateur to silly. But I'd show up to watch Ivan Vasiliev cross the street; and two hours with these pros, despite all the finger-wagging and arm-waving, was thrilling.
