Modern Ballet

Last week we went to Hanoi Opera to see modern ballet arranged by L'espace (the French culture centre in Hanoi). The performers were still students - and as far as I understood they were some of the first professional dancers educated in Hanoi. The show was divided into two sections - the first section consisted of 6-7 different acts - the second was one long story. I liked most of the show, but being an "old" gymnast I wasn't too impressed with their ability to hit the marks in some of the acts, after all they are soon prof dancers. It was clear they'd worked more on some acts than others. But over all it was a good experince and my first time in the Opera.
