Her Excellency Huda I.Alkhamis-Kanoo, Founder of the Abu Dhabi Music & Arts Foundation, Founder and Artistic Director of Abu Dhabi Festival said,<\/strong> \u201cFor nearly two decades, Abu Dhabi Festival has been a home of the leading stars in ballet. As we continue with this edition\u2019s line-up of performances, we are proud to present Roberto Bolle to the capital in an exceptional ballet gala, including The Nutcracker<\/em>, Dorian Gray<\/em> and The Talisman<\/em>, and share the beauty of this incredible dancer\u2019s talent, his technical skill and unique artistic expression to Abu Dhabi\u2019s audience. Bringing internationally renowned artists and performers to Abu Dhabi remains at the heart of the Festival, and this ballet gala with Roberto Bolle exemplifies our mission.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

H.E. Nicola Lener, Ambassador of Italy to the UAE,<\/strong> said: \u201cBallet traces its origins to the Italian Renaissance and continues to be part of our cultural life. Roberto Bolle, the first dancer in the world to be both \u00c9toile of the Teatro alla Scala in Milan and Principal Dancer of the American Ballet Theatre in New York, has been indeed the first artist to turn dance into a tool to foster dialogue and mutual understanding among people from different backgrounds and social classes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to the fruitful collaboration with ADMAF, the Embassy of Italy is glad to offer to the Abu Dhabi public a wonderful Ballet Gala performed by Roberto Bolle& Friends. This event will provide the unique occasion to enjoy the performance of some of the most famous dancers in the world, who will feature a selection of the most beautiful ballets from the 19th and 20th. I am sure that it will be an amazing evening for the Abu Dhabi thriving cultural life\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Roberto Bolle, a superstar of ballet and the first Italian dancer to be invited to perform at the Metropolitan Opera with the greatest dancers of our time, showcases the breadth of his talent and skill in a variety of pieces, from classical ballet to contemporary dance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this performance, taking place at the Emirates Palace Auditorium in Abu Dhabi, Bolle invites 5 world-famous \u00e9toilesto dance with him on the Abu Dhabi Festival stage. The gala will feature 9 ballet dances including: Two, The Talisman, Kazimir\u2019s Colours, The Nutcracker, Waves, Giselle \u2013 Pas de deux from Act II, Tha\u00efs, Don Quixote \u2013 Pas de deux Act III<\/em>, and Dorian Gray<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Commenting on the gala performance, Bolle<\/strong>said \u201cIt is a great honor to represent Italy with my gala \u201cRoberto Bolle and Friends\u201d here in Abu Dhabi, a great pleasure to be here for the first time! I am happy and proud to bring Italian art and culture once again beyond the borders, and to be able to show the beauty and communicative power of the dance, universal language that unites people and cultures all over the world\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
