Enter the enchanting world of ballet through the eyes of the legendary dance and theater critic Clive Barnes, and others like him, whose views on dance and theater will both intrigue and captivate even the most jaded of readers.
Meet such luminaries of the dance and theater world as Joel Grey of Cabaret fame, and hear how he and others were both moved and inspired after having seen some of the greatest ballet classics of all time.
And get an in-depth view of these grandiose productions—Swan Lake, Sleeping Beauty, Nutcracker, Giselle, Romeo and Juliet, Don Quixote, Coppelia, and many others—as you take the journey that will both enlighten and enrich you.
