Kyiv City Ballet to Perform as Part of Smith Artist Series

by | Aug 17, 2022

Kyiv City Ballet will perform on Sept. 18 at 7:30 p.m. in the Duke Family Performance Hall.

 

The C Shaw and Nancy K Smith Artist Series is proud to welcome the Kyiv City Ballet to Davidson College for a performance of their mixed repertoire show “Tribute to Peace.” The day before Ukraine was invaded in February, the Kyiv City Ballet unknowingly took one of the last flights out of Kyiv. The company flew to Paris to begin a long planned tour. They have not been able to return home. The country of France has sheltered them and the company has been performing throughout France, and now Europe, since the invasion began. We are excited to be part of their US premiere tour this fall. Tickets can be purchased in person or online at the Union Ticket Office.
