Ulyana Lopatkina encarna la esencia del ballet clásico.
Hoy es su máxima figura… pese a su 1,75 de altura. No es fácil encontrarle compañero.
A sus 41 años, Uliana Lopátkina, es hoy la encarnación del ballet clásico en su forma más pura. Es la transmisora más fiel de la tradiciones academicistas de la danza en la Rusia zarista, que, sorprendentemente, se mantuvieron durante toda la época soviética y constituyen la esencia del ballet clásico en la Rusia actual. Sobre todo en el Teatro Mariinski de San Petersburgo, en donde Lopátkina es la primera bailarina.
