Grand Theatre concludes its 239 th season premiere of the ballet – the play “Hero of Our Time”, put on the eponymous novel by Mikhail Lermontov’s famous choreographer Yuri Posokhova. Music specially written for this ballet Petersburg composer Ilya Demutsky. The director of a ballet performance made by the famous actor and theater and film director Kirill Serebrennikov. The premiere will be held at the New Stage of the Bolshoi Theater on July 22, according to RIA “Novosti” with reference to the press service of the theater.
Serebrennikov second time working at the Bolshoi Theater – in the beginning it was the opera “The Golden Cockerel” by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov, and now it is the first time serves as director of the ballet.
“Right after” The Golden Cockerel “I was approached by Sergei Filin and said that the theater wants me to do in the Bolshoi Ballet, ballet scene that is needed. And I did not hesitate, immediately said -” Hero of our time. “I often refer to this work of Lermontov, it does not let me. All that we are involved in creating the ballet, tried to do – all for Lermontov. This is our offering of Russian classics” – said Serebrennikov.
In contrast to the opera, where the clear role of the director, it is all in the ballet choreographer, he is the main man in the play. It creates a plastic base, it selects artists according to their plastic and expressive possibilities. But the director, according Serebrennikov is needed here to tell a certain story, because it is a plot of the ballet classic. He himself wrote the libretto, in which the composer created music Demutsky. I must say that Serebrennikov acts in this ballet in several forms: the director, the author of the libretto, the art director.
“I have tried to create some internal plot, in which there was a development and Yury Posohov created a delightful choreography – a neoclassical. It is a very big theater, and the company is able to do very well,” – said the director .
In Lermontov’s novel “Hero of Our Time” is divided into large separate chapters. And ballet, as he said Serebrennikov, followed by the author, too, is not a single-piece play, and three one-act ballets: “Bela”, “Taman” and “Princess Mary”. And in every part of your Pechorin.
“All Petchorin different, in fact, like Lermontov. Three Pechorin and three periods of his life. At the end of the ballet dance all three Pechorin that embody different faces extremely complex and contradictory character of the hero. All performers who are entrusted these serious games work perfectly. We have classical ballet, and it involves the premiere, the stars of the Bolshoi Theatre, “- said Serebrennikov.
In addition to the soloists of the ballet company, involved in the play and most unusual artists. Perhaps for the first time on the stage of the Bolshoi Theatre will come wheelchair, members of the Russian team dancing in wheelchairs. But this is just one of the surprises that await the audience.
Serebrennikov intends to leave “Gogol center” after 5 years
Artistic director of “Gogol-center” by Kirill Serebrennikov, who heads it in August 2012, said he would leave the theater in five years – when the contract expires. In the theater he staged “The Idiot” based on the play by Valery Pecheykin based on Lars von Trier’s film, “Spring Awakening” for the musical by Stephen Seytera Neck and Duncan on the basis of the play by Frank Wedekind, “Dead Souls” by Nikolai Gogol and others.
