Ballet is my favorite kind of dancing. It takes muscle, accuracy, patience, and is absolutely beautiful.
So when Hannah told me we were going to see the Russian National Ballet at the Orpheum Theatre, I was beyond excited!
I have only seen one professional ballet prior to Wednesday’s adventure to Omaha. In fourth grade, my class traveled to Omaha (cannot remember which theatre) to watch “The Nutcracker Ballet.” I can’t remember much of it, but I do recall loving it.
Hannah had never been to a ballet, so I was extra excited for her to see one, and hoped she would enjoy it as much as I know I was going to.
Going to a ballet meant we got to dress up, something Hannah and I enjoy doing, but it doesn’t happen too often.
