Another way to understand the soul of a woman — through dance.
As part of the International Ballet Festival, on April 4 and 5 the National Ballet of Uzbekistan will present the performance “Lazgi. Dance of Soul and Love” on the stage of the Alisher Navoi State Academic Bolshoi Theatre of Uzbekistan.
The production draws on the ancient Khorezm dance lazgi — a language of emotions in which movement, glance and gesture reveal a woman’s inner world. In the performance, tradition merges with contemporary ballet, turning an ancient dance into a story about love, life and the soul.
A dance recognized worldwide

A story about a woman and her soul
