The world-renowned dance company Bolshoi Ballet is “on blistering form” (The Telegraph) in their performance of “The Flames of Paris,” hitting big screens nationwide on Sunday, March 4 for a one-day event. Captured live from Moscow’s legendary Bolshoi Theatre earlier that same day, the production is part of the 2017-18 Bolshoi Ballet in Cinema Series, presented by Fathom Events in partnership with BY Experience and Pathé Live.

Very few ballets can properly depict the Bolshoi’s overflowing energy and fiery passion as can Alexei Ratmansky’s captivating revival of “The Flames of Paris,” set in the era of the French Revolution. With powerful virtuosity and some of the most stunning pas de deux, the Bolshoi Ballet displays an exuberance well-suited for the Moscow stage.
