Antiquated

I have an interesting secret. Care to hear?

When I was a little girl, I joined a ballet class. I didn't like it at all. The teacher was strict, the dance was strict, and everything was frilly, girly, difficult, and operated in a manner alien to my own.

In my later years, I grew to appreciate it more (with some help from a much nicer dance teacher, annual Nutcracker viewings, and Princess Tutu [that last one, BTW, a much better show than it sounds. XD]).

Well, anyway, here are some of the oldest recordings of Ballet performances I've ever seen (and I'm pretty sure are some of the oldest in existence). Enjoy!

The upper one is from 1903, but shorter. The lower one is the same dance, but from 1906, and longer.
