I was lucky to see MS. Kain perform in Detroit with Rudolph Nureyev- wonderful. I also saw her on PBS dancing The Merry Widow and Eugene Onegin. Then I heard nothing of her. I always wanted to obtain DVDs of these two ballets but have been unable. Can you tell me where I can get them?
Sincerely
Terry
My best wishes to Ms. Kain

Hello,

The PBS online "store" has no listing for either performance in video/DVD format. You may wish to contact them directly at:
http://www.pbs.org/about/contact/

You can also contact the National Ballet of Canada through their website:
http://national.ballet.ca/Default.aspx

This is a YouTube video clip of a 1986 National Ballet of Canada performance of "Eugene Onegin":

I hope this information is useful.
