How similar is this Ukrainian dance to the original folk dances in Ukraine?

You would not see anything like this in a Ukrainian village now. This is highly staged and choreographed from steps done in various dances in the past. This is typical of folk dance companies because the dances in their original form may be fun to do, but are not interesting to watch. The costumes are pretty accurate, though.
