Swan Lake at DTW

There is one more night of Swan Lake at Dance Theatre Workshop -- Saturday the 13th at 7pm. We saw it tonight, and I highly recommend it. It's a dance theatre work from the Von Krahl Theatre involving Estonian and Russian artists and plays off of the fact that totalitarian regimes have found the "high art" form of ballet a useful art form for their purposes. The music (by Sergei Zagny and recorded by NYYD), dancing, and design are all brilliant. It's part of the Central Station series which features work from Central and Eastern Europe.

P.S. Not only were we there tonight, so was Mikhail Baryshnikov.
