A special return encore performance. By popular demand, The Grand Kyiv Ballet of Ukraine returns to Australia in 2024 with a special encore season of their double bill of Forest Song & Don Quixote. Following the overwhelming response to their 2023 performances, with sold-out shows and standing ovations, this is your chance to experience their double bill of Forest Song & Don Quixote. Act One – The Ukrainian showpiece…Forest Song This legendary ballet, which for over 75 years remains the pride of Ukraine. Forest Song is a magical love story, full of mysticism alongside the conflict between the human world and nature. It tells a tale of love and the fearless and brave Mavka, who longs for peace in her world, just as Ukraine longs for peace in her country today. Act Two – Don Quixote This flamboyant and festive Spanish ballet is a much-loved romantic comedy. It tells the story of a courageous but troubled man’s quest for love. Gypsies, bullfighters, lavish costumes, breathtaking dancers and an inspiring music score ensure that Don Quixote is a not-to-be-missed experience. Two sensational performances. One magnificent afternoon of ballet.
