“Don Quixote is a romp of a ballet, all flashing eyes, oompah tunes and virtuoso steps. Ivan Vasiliev and Natalia Osipova rampage through it, with outrageous charm and astounding technique. By the time we got to the curtain calls, the audience was standing and screaming for them.” -The Independent, London UK
