To Londoners, Revitalized Bolshoi Is Off The Charts

“The Bolshoi Ballet’s current season here, the third in four years, is such a success that it has inspired standing, shouting ovations from audiences and superlatives from sometimes finicky critics, including one who deemed a performance worthy of six stars out of five. The overboard reception has noted not just the astonishing individual dancing … but also the overall look, speed and spirit of this revitalized company under Alexei Ratmansky, now in his third year as artistic director.”
