Vladimir Vasiliev about Anyuta ballet

Description :

In St Petersburg this ballet, long since a classic, will be staged for the first time finally returning to its alma mater at the historic stage of the Mariinsky Theatre. Vladimir Vasiliev notes that it is important for ballet artists to experience Chekhov and Gavrilin on stage, to feel and convey to the audience the wonderfully subtle sensation of goodness and beauty inherent in these authors. The Mariinsky Theatre proudly presents its first ballet premiere of the season, Anyuta, set to the music of Valery Gavrilin, on 8 and 9 December at 12:00 and 19:00 on its historic stage. The plot of Anton Chekhov's short story Anna on the Neck will come to life in a choreographic realization, co‑created by Vladimir Vasiliev.
