Ballets Russes

August 3 and 24 at 2:30
East Building Auditorium

From the Diaghilev-era early years in turn-of-the-century Paris, to the American tours of the 1930s and 1940s when the troupe amazed naïve audiences with sophisticated artistry, to the final downfall in the 1950s and 1960s, Ballets Russes presents rare interviews and dance footage in a compelling portrait focusing on the history of Ballet Russe de Monte Carlo. (Dan Geller and Dayna Goldfine, 2005, 35 mm, 118 minutes)
