Siberian State Ballet Company

Recreated by Alexander Gorsky, this remains one of the oldest ballets still regularly performed. A gentle tale of love thwarted, unrequited and found, it's a masterpiece of comedy. With plenty of ribbons, romance and rivalry, La Fille mal gardée conjoures up a world of pastoral simplicity where a farm boy woos a flirty farmer's daughter and they find inventive ways to avoid her mother. Complete with virtuoso pas de deux, maypole and clog dances, this ballet will send you home happy, delighting those enjoying it for the very first time as well as those who want to see it again and again.
