Dancing into history


An historic leap!(飛躍) American David Hallberg will soon be in the limelight (注目的中心)as the first foreign principal dancer of Russia's Bolshoi ballet company.

At the height of the Cold War, 50 years ago, when Russian dancer Rudolf Nureyev defected(背叛,脫離,缺失) to the West, an American dancer in Moscow would have been unimaginable.

But now Hallberg has the opportunity to wow(驚艷) the Bolshoi's fans.
