KCPA - Foellinger Great Hall, 500 South Goodwin Avenue, Urbana, IL 61801

In 1937, Ukrainian ballet masters Pavlo Virsky (known for principal roles in Swan Lake, Don Quixote, and Raymonda) and Mykola Bolotov joined forces to intertwine the soulfulness of folk dance with the exacting technique of classical ballet. Over 75 years later, the company continues to celebrate the warm humor, optimism, and wisdom of the Ukrainian people that first inspired Virsky to share this captivating traditional artistry with the world. Recommended for ages 8 and up.
