“Here is bravura dancing at its greatest,” raves The New York Times about this renowned folk ensemble that is known for its masterful dance prowess, infectious enthusiasm, and vibrantly colored costumes. Founded in 1937 by Pavlo Virsky and Mykola Bolotov, the Virsky Ukrainian National Dance Company has toured around the world, celebrating the passion and beauty of its native Ukraine—the wisdom of its people and their folk traditions—with humor and optimism. These professionally trained artists from Kiev perform spirited dances reflecting the geographic and cultural diversity of Ukraine. The male Cossack warriors demonstrate their awe-inspiring acrobatic skills and impressive swordplay, while female dancers in exquisite finery glide gracefully across the stage. This incredible company leaves audiences spellbound!
