Ballet at the Opera House

On their last day in Sydney Marilyn and I went to see an australian ballet production at the Opera House, well extracts from 3 Russian ballets - Firebird, Petrouchka and Les Sylphides. It was amazing to see inside the Opera House and it was great for me to see 3 extracts as I haven't seen many before.

Firebird was my favourite as it has such unusual costumes.Les Sylphides was just beautiful to watch though and what I imagine of more classical ballet.Petrouchka was more of a funny story about magical puppets in a russian village which was really a bit freaky!
