Another Russian Ballet comes to Gaborone

The Stars of the Ballet Russia will perform a tribute to Rudolf Nureyev, who was slated as one of the greatest male ballet dancers of the 20th century. There will be a short film about the life of Rudolf Nureyev followed by the performance pieces.

The first act will be Walpurgis Night by Charles Gounod. The act takes place in Mephistophele’s estate where he is trying to divert Faust’s thoughts away from Margarita by offering him to enjoy in the goods and riches of the world.
