I just heard from a friend that the Bolshoi will be appearing in Boston this Fall.  They will dance RAYMONDA on October 6-7 at 7:30 PM, and DON QUIXOTE on October 8-9 at 7:30 PM and October 10 at 3:00 PM.  Does anyone know the venue they'll be using and when tickets will go on sale?

Thanks!

It doesn't look like they're at the Wang Center -- although those dates in October are as yet free (I checked their calendar).

Um, I think you mean Boston Ballet  is about to open at the Wang with Swan Lake....

I'd be surprised if the Bolshoi is not going to be at the Wang, that is the most likely venue.  I think it may be part of a series of dance companies presented in Boston.  I don't have time to check tonight but will look it up tomorrow.

Thanks, Dale and BBfan (I edited my post so as not to cause further confusion!)

Does anyone know if this is a part of a larger Bolshoi tour?

Just found Bolshoi will come to Berkeley again this Nov.  Two programs: Romeo & Juliet; Raymonda.
