Overview
Part of MBT's 2011-2012 Education Program
Classically trained artists bring the culture of Russia to life with frenetic dance, toe-tapping music, infectious comedy and audience participation. Barynya, a Russian folk dance, is known for its quick beat and humorous rhymes. The performers use wind, string and percussion instruments along with traditional dance and a vast array of brilliant costumes, to depict the exhilarating and educational tales, trials and tribulations of their rich heritage.
Did you know that there are syllables in the Russian languages that are totally unknown to the English speaking world? And visa versa! The Barynya performers share the unique elements of Russia's legacy with the audience while working to preserve pre-revolution culture.
