Joffrey Ballet or Moscow Ballet?

Question: Joffrey Ballet or Moscow Ballet!?

Hi everyone! I'm going to buy tickets to see the Nutcracker in Chicago for my Mom's birthday!. I'm not really a "ballet" person and am wondering which is the better show!? The Joffrey Ballet or the Moscow Ballet!.

Does anyone have any reviews or advice!?

Thanks a lot!

If you're not really a ballet person, go see the Joffrey!.

The technique and intention of the Moscow company may be hard to grasp and the Russians are technicians first and performers second!.

That is not to say it won't be a brilliant production, but the Joffrey Ballet's Nutcracker is full of humor, fun and definitely entertainment that can be appreciated by both ballet aficionados as well as someone looking to enjoy one performance!.

The costumes are brilliant and beautiful, and the Joffrey has a ton of American born dancers that are exciting to watch!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

Go see the Moscow - Since the Joffrey resides in Chicago you can go see them do something else another time!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
