The Bahrain Tourism and Exhibitions Authority (BTEA) will be organizing the world-renowned Imperial Russian Ballet (IRB) from March 2 to 4 at the Grand Hall in Exhibition World Bahrain, Sakhir.

The company, Common Ground International, in partnership with the American non-profit ‘The Arts &Science Achievement Foundation,’ and support of the Office of the BTEA, has started the implementation of a large-scale International Cultural Project- Common Ground in Bahrain.

The project, which kicks off with the Imperial Russian Ballet, will be the first out of many planned for the kingdom and GCC region this year.

The troupe of the IRB comprises nearly 300 performers, including 120 members of the State Symphonic Orchestra and a full production team. The repertoire will consist of world classical orchestral masterpieces, including Pyotr Tchaikovsky’s Swan Lake and Sleeping Beauty, stated the report.
