Boris Eifman's magnificent ballet Anna Karenina returns to the stage of the Alexandrinsky Theatre!

Boris Eifman's magnificent ballet Anna Karenina returns to the Alexandrinsky Theatre from May 27 to August 20. This unique performance of Leo Tolstoy's classic work attracts attention with its internal psychological energy and emotional impact.

In his performance, choreographer Boris Eifman focused on the main thing - the love triangle Anna - Karenin - Vronsky, removing all secondary plot lines. The graceful plasticity of the performers' bodies conveys the drama and experiences of the main character, who has undergone an internal transformation. Passion, according to Eifman, is the main driving factor leading to the violation of social norms, the destruction of maternal love and the inner world of Anna Karenina. She, consumed and crushed by sensual attraction, is ready to make any sacrifice.

Boris Eifman emphasizes that his ballet is a story about today, about the modern era. The emotional intensity of the performance and direct parallels with modern times capture the attention of the audience. The highest level of performing technique of the troupe and the choreography of Boris Eifman convey all the psychological twists and turns of Tolstoy's novel.

Don't miss the opportunity to plunge into the world of passion and emotions that permeate the ballet "Anna Karenina". Buy tickets on our website and witness this amazing performance. The Alexandrinsky Theater is looking forward to seeing you!
