Review of the ballet

One ting that surprised me at the ballet was how easy all the dancers made the performance seem. Only after maybe the first 15-20 minutes into the performance was when I realized how hard what they were doing was, and these dancers were some of the best in the world and have been training ti do this for practically their whole lives. The costumes of the first performance was one of my favorites because they were what i picture in my head when I hear the word ballet. Also, I loved the solo performances in the first dance, especially one selection performed by a brunette ballerina and the duet between the other two ballerinas. The first section I felt was more “classy” and traditional ballet and demonstrated the skill of the ballerinas. The second performance I felt was the dramatic and theatre-esque representation of ballet and I thought was beautiful. I was happy that i read the synopsis of the dance before the actual performance or else I would have been a bit lost. The scenery was amazing and I didn’t think there was going to be props and stuff at all. The third performance was by-far my favorite (and not just because of the Brazilian danseur (term for a male ballerina) even though he added so much to the performance and my entertainment.) It was funny, and entertaining, but you could also see the level of skill and talent each dancer had and I just had a great time.
