“This is Vija Vetra and I invite you to my 94th birthday party at the Greek restaurant Nisi.” Twenty or more fellow Latvians also honored what is certainly the oldest still performing dancer of Latvia, if not the world. Vija has choreographed her life and travels each year from Westbeth to Latvia for a performance. She then goes on to Greece and the island of Aegina and the Temple of Aphaea—“my temple, where I danced in the Classical Age.” Text by George Capsis.
