Boris Eifman's ballet Anna Karenina comes to life on the stage of the Alexandrinsky Theatre


Boris Eifman's ballet Anna Karenina, inspired by Leo Tolstoy's novel and Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky's music, comes to life again on the stage of the legendary Alexandrinsky Theatre. This performance, with sets by Zinovy ​​Margolin and costumes by Vyacheslav Okunev, illuminated by the mastery of Gleb Filshtinsky, has become a real event in the world of art. 

Eifman focused on the main characters of the work - Anna, Karenin and Vronsky, removing secondary lines to emphasize the drama of the love triangle. The choreographic interpretation allows the audience to penetrate deeper into the psychology of the characters, revealing the internal conflict of Anna Karenina. Passion, as the main driver of her actions, becomes the cause of the destruction of her inner world and maternal love.

Eifman emphasizes the relevance of the theme, saying that his ballet reflects not only the past, but also the present. The emotional intensity of the performance and parallels with today's life resonate with the audience. The highest skill of the theater performers and expressive choreography make the production unforgettable.
