Ballet

I went to see Giselle on Sunday night with a few of my girlfriends. This was my first Russian Ballet performance and it was beautiful! We opted to attend the performance at a smaller theater that is close to our house and I am glad that we did as the theater was amazing. We had great seats that were close to the stage and reasonably priced. I am consistently amazed at the respect for the arts here in St. Petersburg. Every museum and theater is always full of children of all ages that are actively listening and enjoying the culture that surrounds them. Sadly I could not take pictures during the ballet but I was able to snap a few of the theater before the performance and during the final bow. I am sure this was the first of many more ballets that I will enjoy- hopefully next time I can drag Josh along with me.
