A unique and exciting event at the Alexandrinsky Theatre - the ballet "Anna Karenina" by Boris Eifman!
Boris Eifman's Anna Karenina at the Alexandrinsky Theatre is a unique and exciting event that should not be missed. The performance, based on the famous novel by Leo Tolstoy, is full of emotional power and deep psychological impact.
Choreographer Boris Eifman skillfully conveys the dramatic story of Anna Karenina, focusing on her love triangle with Karenin and Vronsky. He removes all the secondary lines of the novel to focus on the most powerful and destructive feeling - passion.
In the performance, you will be able to see how passion leads to a crime against social norms, destroys family and maternal love and crushes the inner world of Anna Karenina. Eifman conveys all these emotional twists and turns through a plastic dance technique that captivates the audience and does not leave them indifferent.
The ballet Anna Karenina is not just a historical work of art. This is a performance about today, about modern feelings and passions that are timeless. Watching this production, you will find direct parallels with modern reality and see that the themes of love, betrayal and sacrifice remain relevant today.
Don't miss the opportunity to immerse yourself in the world of passion and emotions conveyed by Boris Eifman's ballet "Anna Karenina". Tickets for the performance can be purchased on our website. Visit the Alexandrinsky Theatre from May 27 to August 20 and immerse yourself in this exciting story of love and passion.
