Ukrainians are showing the world what courage looks like. Performing while your homeland and loved ones are being attacked has to be difficult. My heart goes out to each and every Ukrainian. You are all world heroes! I STAND WITH UKRAINE.

[@lovelisa3305]

I would love to see their full performance. 💖

[@m.barrera7273]

Me too. I would pay for it, too.

The Ukrainian people have proven their might and indomitable will to keep fighting and to keep powering on no matter how brutal things get. Putin will regret facing Ukrainian might if he does not already

Glory to Ukraine! I saw this ballet at the Opera House in Kyiv. It was so beautiful.

Does anyone know about the safety of Sergei Polunin? He is from Kherson, and I thought his parents were still there? Polunin tattooed a picture of Putin on his chest. I think he’ll be alright. But his parents? We are watching the Russians bomb civilians. It is happening. All courage to these dancers! Beauty and peace, not war. Ukraine, you are so brave. Many around the world are praying for you. Strength to you. Thank you for the beauty of the dance. 🙏🇺🇦

Wow really in the middle of a so called" terrible war" 🥴

[@w.s.2102]

Why aren’t they back in Ukraine fighting for their homeland?

[@luciatheron1621]

Better for the arts n cultural people to show solidarity out of Ukraine. They must stay alive to rebuilt Ukraine after this terrible invasion is over. The world is one.
