Boris Eifman's Ballet "Anna Karenina" at the Alexandrinsky Theatre: Passions and Drama on Stage

Boris Eifman's ballet Anna Karenina is a vivid embodiment of Leo Tolstoy's classic novel, presented at the Alexandrinsky Theatre. The production, based on the music of Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, transports the viewer into a world of complex human emotions and passions. Eifman, having removed secondary plot lines, focused on the central theme - the love triangle between Anna, Karenin and Vronsky. 

The sets by Zinovy ​​Margolin and costumes by Vyacheslav Okunev harmoniously complement the atmosphere of the performance, and the lighting design by Gleb Filshtinsky emphasizes the drama of what is happening on stage. Eifman's choreography conveys the inner struggle of the heroine, whose life is destroyed under the weight of passion and social prejudices. 

The performance technique of the Boris Eifman Ballet Theatre troupe allows the audience to penetrate deeper into the psychological nuances of the work. The ballet embodies not only the past, but also the present, finding a response in the hearts of today's audiences.
