Kasatka Cossacks, September 1979

THE kASATKA COSSACKS, who bring their colourful and exciting  programme to the Gordon Craig for the first time on Saturday 15 September (giving matinee and evening performances), were only formed as an ensemble two years ago but have already achieved an enviable international reputation.  Their carefully balanced blend of music, singing and dancing in the Cossack and Slavonic idiom has brought them ecstatic receptions and packed houses in major venues from London to Kuala Lumpur, their gorgeous costumes adding the final touch to performances of the highest professional calibre.  Russian, Ukrainian, Georgian and Slavonic routines and musical numbers encompass tender sentiment as well as breathtaking spectacle, and the whole show is a visual and aural delight for the whole family.  Not to be missed!
