“Giselle,” a renowned ballet presented from the historic Mariinsky Theatre in St. Petersburg, Russia, will be broadcast Saturday at Sterling Six Cinemas in Iola.
“I’ve had several people asking about when we are starting our alternative content and it starts now,” Sterling Six manager Nic Olson announced in a press release.
The 10:15 a.m. broadcast will be shown in 3-D.
Admission is $11 for adults and $10 for students ages 12 to 18 or with a college I.D. Seniors 65 and older will pay $9.75. Children ages 3 to 11 will pay $6.50. Children 2 and under will be admitted free of charge.
Giselle is the story of a village girl who falls deeply in love with a prince disguised as a peasant. The idyllic pastoral scene is shattered by an act of betrayal and the ensuing heartbreak.
The 96-minute production stars Natalia Osipova and Leonid Sarafanov.
