| Hopak, Russian gopak, Ukrainian folk dance originating as a male dance among the Zaporozhian Cossacks but later danced by couples, male soloists, and mixed groups of dancers. |
| They dance the gopak, while little imps emerge from every nook and cranny in the form of crickets and beetles. |
| It was exciting, and always got the crowd going, with much clapping, expostulation and dancing of the gopak. |
| The evening limped feebly to life in the third act ballet, graced by Royal Ballet principal Mara Galeazzi and a super-bendy gopak dancer who deserved top billing. |
