The Alexandrinsky Theatre invites audiences to a performance created by the Boris Eifman Ballet Theatre — «Molière Passion, or The Mask of Don Juan». This production marks Eifman’s second exploration of the figure of the great French playwright Jean-Baptiste Molière. The event will take place in March, and tickets can already be purchased online, allowing you to reserve your preferred seats in advance while they are still available.
The two-act ballet premiered in 2021 and immediately captured public attention with its unconventional artistic vision. Choreographer Boris Eifman intertwines the personal drama of the author of immortal comedies with the story of one of his most enigmatic characters — Don Juan.
This production is part of the repertoire of the Boris Eifman Ballet Theatre and continues the tradition of profound interpretations of literary and theatrical classics through the language of contemporary dance.
The music of Mozart, Berlioz, and Lully lends the performance a special charm, creating an effect of total immersion in the atmosphere of Molière’s era. Outstanding work on the sets, costumes, and original choreography draws the attention even of seasoned theatre-goers. Through this, the deep inner experiences of Molière are revealed — a playwright whose works have remained in the repertoire of theatres around the world for more than three centuries.
Attending this ballet will be a vivid and memorable experience. Do not miss the chance to engage with great art alongside choreographer Boris Eifman and rediscover the genius of the French playwright through the lens of contemporary choreography!
