For the seventh consecutive year, the Bolshoi Ballet opens its doors to audiences in cinemas across the globe with its 2016-2017 season: 7 unique ballets, comprising four broadcasts live from Moscow via satellite (“The Golden Age”, “The Sleeping Beauty”, “A Contemporary Evening”, and “A Hero Of Our Time”) and three other must-sees of the company (“The Bright Stream”, “The Nutcracker” and “Swan Lake”), will be presented in HD with 5.1 sound.
Along with productions created by some of today’s most talented and renowned choreographers coming out of Russia (Alexei Ratmansky, Yuri Grigorovich, and Yuri Possokhov), the Bolshoi presents an evening dedicated to exceptional choreography by modern giants: Hans Van Manen, Sol Leon and Paul Lightfoot, also featuring a piece by Ratmansky.
Olga Smirnova is promoted from Leading Soloist to Principal Dancer of the Bolshoi Ballet.
