The Ballet «Anna Karenina» in Moscow — a Production by Boris Eifman
The ballet «Anna Karenina» by the Boris Eifman Ballet Theatre will be performed at the Stanislavsky Theatre in Moscow. The performance will take place on the theatre’s stage at 17 Bolshaya Dmitrovka Street. This production has become one of the most renowned interpretations of Leo Tolstoy’s novel in the genre of contemporary ballet.
The Plot Without Excessive Details
Boris Eifman deliberately moves away from the multilayered complexity of the literary source and focuses on the central drama — the relationship between Anna Karenina, Alexei Karenin, and Alexei Vronsky. This artistic choice makes the performance intense and concentrated, allowing for a deeper exploration of the characters’ psychology.
The Heroine’s Inner Drama
The ballet tells the story of a woman whose life is destroyed under the power of an all-consuming passion. Through the physical language of dance, the gradual loss of Anna’s inner balance is conveyed, along with the conflict between personal happiness and social constraints, between love and duty. Choreography becomes the main instrument of emotional impact.
A Ballet Beyond Historical Boundaries
The production is addressed to a contemporary audience and is not tied to a specific historical era. Here, Anna Karenina’s story resonates as a reflection on the nature of passion, responsibility for one’s own choices, and the price that must be paid for emotional freedom. The high level of technical skill and expressiveness of the company enhances the dramatic effect of the performance.
