Bonfire of the Ballet Girls, Tuesday June 11 6:00 – 7:00pm
In the 19th century, the symbol of grace and beauty was the ballerina, in her gauzy white costume; meanwhile, the height of modernity on stage was gas illumination. The combination of the two could sometimes spell disaster for the ballerina, the theater, and the audience.
