I am thrilled and satisfied with this tour’s results, which has allowed us to perform on stages where such a large representation of the company has not performed for a long time or for the first time,” Valdes told Prensa Latina.

The prima ballerina stated that the program presented here and in Laos “was ideal for this occasion because it allowed us to show the different styles and part of the repertoire that enables the BNC to be recognized worldwide.

The BNC general director commented that many acknowledged that the audience’s reception of the performances was joyful regarding how they applauded.

The prestigious Cuban institution was declared a Cultural Heritage of the Nation in 2018.
