The following is buried down in Marc's White Nights Festival thread. I recently posted a long list of dance-related events occuring in Peter during the big 300th-Anniversary Week. One of the juicier items should not be missed by those of you who anxiosly await LIVE ballet on TV!  Lopatkina is  supposed to perform...at least, she is still on the mariinsky's roster for performers on that night.  (One can always hope...)

****
Friday, May 30 - OPEN MUSEUMS DAY; also, first day of International Summit --
                         roads closed - access into city by Metro or on foot only ...
