I visited Kostroma dance show on Aug 25, 2019 and there was a full house. I live in Moscow and I have a thing for a ballet, so couldn’t miss it. Many thanks to the performers, I enjoyed every minute of it!! This was not to the least amateurish, but quite the opposite - very professional, skillful, top class - starting from the music, decorations, idea&staging (1st half - telling the history of Russia through dancing; 2nd half - intro to the culture of the nationalities populating Russia), to the performance itself. Would recommend to those visitors who are interested to learn a little bit about Russian traditions and history in a lively and easy manner. Plus this show puts you in a good mood with all the music, colorful costumes and energy coming from the dancers on stage! The theater is new, small but nice, plenty of leg space, central seats are the best although there is good viewing from all the seats. We had balcony seats, the group of American and British kids next to us seemed to enjoy it very much! And my lady-neighbor from Vietnam was clapping her hands out with excitement, almost dancing along, while it was not her 1st time at this show, as I learnt. So I say, one can definitely expect some positive emotions and a good value for money if he/she comes to this show!
