  • Summary

  • Ballet is a source of joy and I, Maria Khoreva, ballerina of the Mariinsky Theater, will prove it to you. I'll tell you about it. Not about ballet in general, but about ballets in particular. About specific ballet performances. You and I will read the libretto and think about the hidden meanings, watch from the audience and take a peak from the wings - get acquainted if you're not already and get to know better if you already know each other. One episode - one ballet. I'm sure you'll like it.
