I went to see Gizel balet at the newly remodeled Mihailovsky Theatre named after Musorgsky in Saint-Petersburg. The all-Russian cast was coreographed by the French - it ROCKED !!! I cried like a baby during the second act! It truely was the most beautiful show I have ever seen anywhere, EVER!!! Even Cirque du Soleil could learn a thing or two... People say Gizel at Maryinski is where it's at - I will believe it when I see it, but for now: long live the Russo-French art!
