A Royal Appearance!

My friend and I had the wonderful opportunity to attend the National Ballet of Spain. The show was amazing! I will describe the  show in a bit, but I need to name drop first.

As the recorded announcement told us there were five minutes before the show started, people started standing to take videos and her security detail made their presence known. At the time, we didn’t know who was coming in and didn’t find out until after the show.

QUEEN SOFIA attended the ballet!!! More here in the Spanish news article.

The Spanish National ballet company was amazing! They danced tradition escuela bolera dance, had a very contemporary solo with live piano and closed out the show with a five part, live music, Flamenco series. The dancers were so clear and performed spectacularly. Such a beautiful performance and a royal night to remember!!!
