BWW Reviews: Maine State Ballet Mounts Swashbuckling LE CORSAIRE
by Carla Maria Verdino-Süllwold
- Apr 6, 2015

The more than thirty-five principals, soloists, and corps de ballet, drawn from area professionals and talented young dancers in the company school form a cohesive troupe, who seem to have grown in polish and precision over the past few years and who are not afraid to tackle the demands of this large scale Romantic ballet.
