The Ballets Russes Return To The Scene Of That Historic Riot
"On Friday night [at the Théâtre des Champs-Elysées], in a culmination of years of diplomatic and artistic negotiation, the curtain will be lifted on four of the works that helped make the dance troupe's name." The program includes "two of the company's best-known ballets, Scheherazade and Ravel's Bolero, alongside two 1912 works which were largely forgotten about after Diaghilev's death in 1929."
