The Ballet Shoes I'd Never Wear...

I was never a big fan of the ballet. That is - of the classical ballet, although I grew up in the country that has the greatest ballet ever - Russia. I just never learned to really like it that much, however, I must not say so as I have seen quite a few of the Bolshoi Theater productions when toured in New York City a few years ago and I was mesmerized - there's nothing like the Russian ballet dancers! However, if I had to choose between a Broadway show and a ballet performance, I'd go with the first one. That's said, I do love modern ballet, and, of course, if Mikhael Baryshnikov - [though, most of the Americans might know him more as Carrie Bradshaw's Russian boyfriend Aleksandr Petrovsky in the final season of Sex and The City...] - would have performed, I'd be the first in line for the tickets. So, I guess I do appreciate the art of ballet, don't I?
