Excellent seats! Performance was very good and the audience was very enthusiastic so it appeared there were real ballet enthusiasts. Dancers were excellent and energetic but in the middle sections of each part of the evening the choreography was repetitious and unimaginative. Music was rather irritating and not connected to what was on stage.
