The Cuban National Ballet Company presented the show The Magic of Dance, which included Act II of the famous romantic ballet Giselle, where ballerina Gretell Morejón, and dancers Ernesto Álvarez and Ernesto Díaz, stood out in their roles as Giselle, Albrecht and Hilarion respectively.  The program also included Act III of Sleeping Beauty, featuring premier dancer Yanela Piñera and Principal Arián Molina, who danced graciously and accurately.

The second part of the show consisted of Act I and Act III of Coppelia and Don Quijote respectively, featuring the company’s prima ballerina, Viengsay Valdés, who danced with the local company in 2013.
