Eifman Gala: The Universe of Boris Eifman's Ballet on the Country's Main Stage

The Boris Eifman Ballet, founded in 1977, was a true breakthrough in the world of ballet. Eifman created his own unique choreographic language—the language of psychoanalytic ballet. His productions are not just dance, but a profound exploration of the human soul, expressed in expressive and virtuoso movement. He addresses the complex destinies of historical figures and heroes of great literary works, compelling the audience to empathize and reflect.

As part of the gala concert, Moscow audiences will see a digest of the maestro's best works. The company's leading soloists will take to the stage to perform poignant duets and crowd scenes from such iconic ballets as Anna Karenina, Rodin, Her Eternal Idol, and Tchaikovsky. PRO et CONTRA," "Beyond Sin" (based on the novel "The Brothers Karamazov"), "Russian Hamlet," and "Moliere's Passion, or the Mask of Don Juan." Each composition is a concentrated expression of emotion, filigree technique, and incredible acting dedication, which have become the theater's hallmark. The evening's skillfully constructed dramaturgy will allow audiences to trace the creative evolution of the choreographer and his troupe, which has established itself as one of the world's leading ballet companies.

Holding the Eifman Gala at the Kremlin Palace, the country's main concert hall, underscores the event's special status. Luxurious sets, stunning costumes, and, of course, Boris Eifman's brilliant choreography, combined with the grandeur of the Kremlin stage, promise an unforgettable experience. This evening will be a true gift for the capital's sophisticated audience, once again confirming that the language of dance knows no boundaries and can speak to the most complex and intimate subjects.
