My #1 daughter and I went to the Metropolitan Ballet last weekend. It was a lovely time. We attended part of the social hour, she had a Sprite and I had a mineral water. There were two other girls her age attending and some teenagers, but mostly older folks. We both dressed up which was a good thing because people dressed smartly for the event.
There were two shows: Midsummer Night's Dream and Rodeo. They were excellent and my daughter was entertained the whole time - no complaints. My favorite character was Puck. He was so believably mischievious.
I don't know when the next ballet will be, but I do recommend the Metropolitan. It was entertaining and very professional.
