Boris Eifman's ballet "Rodin, Her Eternal Idol" at the Alexandrinsky Theatre

From July 7 to 13, the Alexandrinsky Theatre will host Boris Eifman's ballet "Rodin, Her Eternal Idol". This event promises to be a bright cultural highlight of the summer, attracting the attention of both ballet lovers and art history connoisseurs.

The ballet "Rodin, Her Eternal Idol" is dedicated to the fate and work of the great sculptors Auguste Rodin and his student, lover and muse Camille Claudel. The story of their passion and work is full of tragedy and drama. For 15 years, Rodin and Claudel were one, both in life and in art. However, their breakup was fatal for Camilla, leading to mental breakdown and isolation from the world.

Boris Eifman, using the plastic language of modern psychological ballet, creates a work that explores the mystery of the creative process and the passions that accompany it. The performance not only rethinks the world of human emotions, but also immerses the viewer in the depths of the creative experiences of Rodin and Claudel.

The Alexandrinsky Theater, one of the oldest and most prestigious theaters in Russia, will be the ideal venue for this grandiose performance. Its historical interiors and excellent acoustics will create a unique atmosphere that will help you fully immerse yourself in the world of ballet.
