Red Giselle Ballet at the Alexandrinsky Theatre: a drama about Olga Spesivtseva’s fate
Boris Eifman’s Red Giselle is a profound and emotional drama that comes to life at the Alexandrinsky Theatre. This work is based on the fate of the legendary Russian ballerina Olga Spesivtseva, whose life was marred by revolution, emigration, and personal tragedies.
Located in the heart of St. Petersburg, the Alexandrinsky Theatre is one of the oldest and most significant theatres in Russia. Its majestic architecture and rich history create the perfect setting for such a dramatic production as Red Giselle. This theatre not only preserves traditions, but also opens up new horizons for contemporary art.
In the first act, the audience is transported to revolutionary Petrograd, where the Ballerina finds herself between two worlds: classical art and the destructive power of the new government. In the second act, the action takes place in Paris, where the heroine tries to find herself in a new environment, but faces loneliness and internal contradictions.
This ballet is an opportunity to touch upon a complex story through the prism of music and dance. Each spectator will be able to feel the tragedy of the heroine and reflect on the eternal questions of love, betrayal and self-discovery.
