National Ballet of Japan's "New Year Ballet" will be available to watch online live on January 11th. (it was cancelled due to a staff diagnosed with COVID-19 but none of the dancers tested positive) The performance will be held without audience and be streamed on Jan. 11 at 14:00 JST (UTC +9) for FREE but it will not be archived. Time difference is 14 hours from North America East coast so perhaps difficult for some US residents to watch but a rare opportunity to catch Bintley's Still Life at Penguin Cafe. it will be streamed on their Facebook page and YouTube Channel. -

It is very i -
