Le Corsaire is a breathtaking production reworked by choreographer Alexei Ratmansky, for The Bolshoi Ballet with luxurious cinematic sets, a shipwreck, and enough dancing for nearly the entire troupe, bringing the magnificence of the Bolshoi to life. See an encore presentation of this remarkable production, by composer Adolphe Adam, on the big screen in HD at The Ridgefield Playhouse on Monday, November 18 at 6pm, part of the Classical Series, underwritten by Jeanne Cook, Liz & Steven Goldstone, and Sabina & Walter Slavin with support from Whistle Stop Bakery.
On the bazaar square of Andrinopolis, the Pacha is struck by the beauty of Medora and tries to buy her, but the lovely young woman is not for sale. As the transaction is about to be completed, Medora is kidnaped by Conrad, a charming corsair (pirate) who catches her eye. Bolshoi Prima Ballerina, the "mesmerizing" Ekaterina Krysanova and Leading Soloist Igor Tsvirko ignite Medora and Conrad's passion with undeniable intensity. (The Guardian).
