 Stanislavsky and Nemirovich-Danchenko Musical Theatre will present the premiere of three one-act ballets of Russian and foreign choreographers: Reflections by Yuri Possokhov, The Hill by Gentian Doda and The Beauties could not fall asleep by Anastasia Vyadro. The combination is based on the contrast between the different choreographic languages and the transition from classical pointe technique through the parterre to unusual for the academic theater modern dance in heels. Reflections is the neoclassical ballet by one of the most famous choreographers of the 21st century Yuri Possochov. It was staged in 2005 for the San Francisco troupe to the romantic music of Felix Mendelssohn. The choreographer presented this ballet one year before he finished his career as a principal and transitioned to choreographer position. The set design and costumes were created by Sandra Woodall. The artist’s black, white and red visual design is accompanied and enhanced by high mirrors in various compositions. The musical director — main conductor of the theater Felix Korobov. Gentian Doda is an Albanian choreographer who actively collaborates with ballet companies in Europe, the United States, Israel and China, and is also known for projects with Nacho Duato. Gentian staged The Hill for the Greek National Opera Ballet at Stavros Niarchos Foundation in March 2023. The music for the ballet was written by the Albanian composer C?sar Aliaj Gorishti. In the end of the evening the audience will see the world premiere of the one-act ballet by Anastasia Vyadro The Beauties could not fall asleep. The feminine ballet in heels is a plastic polyphony of the female archetypes trapped inside a woman.
