Cuban Classical Ballet of Miami (CCBM) artistic director Eriberto Jimenez, in collaboration with St. Lucie Ballet, artistic directors Rogelio Corrales and Lydia Oquendo, will present “Jewels of the Russian Ballet” at the Seminole Theatre on Saturday, March 28 at 7:30 pm. “Jewels of the Russian Ballet” will highlight selected pieces of the most famous Classical Ballet Repertoire from the renowned Russian choreographers Mikhail Fokine and Marius Petipa, including: “Scheherazade”, based on the female character and storyteller of the Middle Eastern collection of tales known as ‘One Thousand and One Nights’; the Odalisque’s pas de trois from “Le Corsaire” inspired by Lord Byron's epic poem, and “The Awakening of Flora” based on the Greek myth of Flora Goddess of Spring. Original works include “Yerma”, a tragic poem by Spanish dramatist Federico García Lorca that tells the story of a childless woman living in rural Spain. Her desperate desire for motherhood becomes an obsession that eventually drives her to commit a horrific crime, and “Habaneras.” La Habanera is a sign of cultural identity that reaches all artistic expressions with great refinement from intimacy to higher and romantic states of mind.
