Astana Ballet Theater

The performances here do not have the sumtuous grandeur of those hosted at Astana Opera House. The theatre is smaller. The whole experience is, however, just as rewarding. Cloakrooms near the entrance allow dance-lovers to dress as they wish whatever the weather - some evening dress - some smart-casual - no judgements. This theatre tends to host more modern dance as well as traditiobal ballet. Look out for the special events where visiting troupes are welcomed. Prices for seats are incredibly good value compared to most major cities - with even lower priced seats allowing excellent views in confortabke seats. No photographs are allowed during the performances.

7-5 I watched the ballet "Love Legend" here late, and the classic dance drama created by the Soviet Union in 61 years, especially the male dance language, integrated into the action of the Azerbaijani national style, which is unique.
