Soon he believes himself called to knightly deeds, appoints his servant Sancha Panza, his squire, and sails forth into the world to seek adventures in the service of the beautiful Dulcinea, whom he has glimpsed in a vision. Leading dancers from across Russia have forged, under Sergei Radchencko’s direction, an exciting new company staging a new production of the timeless classic, Don Quixote. The Moscow Festival Ballet was founded in 1989 when legendary principal dancer of the Bolshoi Ballet Sergei Radchenko sought to realize his vision of a company which would bring together the highest classical elements of the great Bolshoi and Kirov Ballet companies in an independent new company within the framework of Russian classic ballet. Since its inception, the Moscow Festival Ballet has completed multiple tours throughout the world to enthusiastic audiences. 2017-18 Season Sponsor Smoky Mountain Living Ticket Fee: $1.50 per ticket No processing or delivery fees
