THE Grand Kyiv Ballet will perform in Frankston this June.
The dancers from the Ukrainian ballet company have not been able to return home since last year’s invasion. They have instead travelled the world performing for audiences in Europe, the USA, China, and South America.
The Grand Kyiv Ballet will begin its tour of New Zealand and Australia next month. The ballet company performs at the Frankston Arts Centre on 29 June in its penultimate show of the tour.
Ukrainian work Forest Song will be performed alongside pieces from Don Quixote.
The Grand Kyiv Ballet of Ukraine was founded in 2014 by National Opera of Ukraine premier dancer Oleksandr Stoianov. He is the company’s principal dancer, artistic director, and producer.
