Le Corsaire
From the Bolshoi Ballet

In the Bolshoi Ballet's new staging of Le Corsaire, Petipa's original choreography is revived and refreshed by Alexei Ratmansky and Yuri Burlaka to breathe new life into this production. The ballet follows Medora, a young Greek girl, and Conrad, a dashing pirate, as they journey through a tapestry of dramatic events, culminating in a shipwreck considered to be one of ballet's most dazzling spectacles.
