Bolshoi theatre`s ballet dancers
Singling out the best ballet dancers might seem incongruous to some people. Each dancer is individual and interprets any piece in his own way. Still, it goes without saying that some of Russia’s best ballet dancers perform in Moscow’s best-known theatre – the Bolshoi. People’s Artist of Russia Svetlana Zakharova is one of the big names featured on the Theatre’s billboards. Consider yourself very lucky if you managed to get a ticket to Swan Lake, Giselle or La Bayadere starring Svetlana Zakharova!
Yevgeniya Obraztsova is another star of the Bolshoi Theatre. This graceful and slim girl is ideal for playing leading roles in romantic fairytales, so it’s no wonder that her repertoire comprises such roles as Sylphide, Giselle, La Bayadere, Princess Aurora, Cinderella and Juliet.
Among leading male dancers of the Bolshoi Theatre are worth mentioning Mikhail Lobukhin and Vladislav Lantratov, both Honoured Artists of Russia. Such artists truly seem to fly around the stage rather than just dance!
Musical theatre`s ballet dancers
If you failed to get ballet tickets to the Bolshoi Theatre, we strongly suggest you go to the Stanislavski and Nemirovich-Danchenko Musical Theatre. Giselle played by Natalya Somova and Odyllia played by Oksana Kardash will leave no spectator indifferent. Try not to miss performances by Dmitri Sobolevski at the Musical Theatre.
Kremlin ballet`s dancers
Among the stars of the Kremlin Ballet are Irina Ablitsova, Honoured Artist of Russia, who achieved overwhelming success at the Kremlin Theatre’s international tours, and Dmitri Prusakov, winner of a number of international ballet competitions.
