The Bolshoi in Vegas - The Kirov in Petersburg
Thirty years ago the Bolshoi Ballet's first trip to America was a political and artistic triumph and audiences queued for days to see these legends of ballet. The Bolshoi in Vegas, a richly entertaining documentary, follows their disastrous 1996 tour in which they hope to capitalise on this earlier success.
The Kirov in Petersburg traces the development of an institution, which is both irremediably altered and condemned to trade on its past glories...Through the deeply personal recollections of workers, dancers and critics, specially-filmed backstage footage and previously unseen archive material, a unique portrait emerges of the Kirov's changing fortunes in the context of its awesome heritage.
