The Alexandrinsky Theatre is pleased to present the ballet "Russian Hamlet", which will run from May 9 to August 21. This performance, created by the talented choreographer Boris Eifman, is a unique and exciting work of art.

The performance is based on the story of Paul I, one of the most mysterious and controversial figures in Russian history. Boris Eifman brilliantly conveyed the tragic confrontation of this extraordinary and spiritually fragile personality in a world full of violence, treachery and lies.
