Ladies night out - through the drama department at school, Mary was able to get us tickets to see the Nutcracker at the Bolshoi, small (Maly) theatre (the large theatre is closed for renovations until Oct 2011 but it has already been delayed a couple years so we'll see). We had great seats (second row of stall seating) and we couldn't believe we were there!
Both the theatre and performance were beautiful
and so much fun right before Christmas.
Everything is a cultural experience... bows and applause were given right in the middle of the performance, several times, along with lots of "bravos" shouted by men causing us to giggle a little.
...and another stroll in the snow on our way home.
