Moscow Ballet's Great Russian Nutcracker is Returning
To Santa Rosa with 20th Anniversary Production!

final-scene-act-1

The special 20th Anniversary production of Moscow Ballet's Great Russian Nutcracker in 2012 overflows with a spectacular new "Dove of Peace," where 2 dancers become one stunning bird, inspired by the early works of Stanislov Vlasov, original choreographer and director of Moscow Ballet's inaugural Great Russian Nutcracker. The production also features a Christmas tree that grows to 7 stories tall; falling snow and Troika-styled sleigh escorted by Russian folk characters Ded Moroz (Father Christmas) and Snegurochka (Snow Maiden); towering hand-made silk puppets; 200 all new, lavish costumes; and 9 hand-painted backdrops, all set to Pyotr Tchaikovsky's complete Nutcracker Suite score.

For 20 years, Great Russian Nutcracker performances have featured the finest Russian ballerinas and danseurs. From former Bolshoi soloist Stanislov Vlasov and partner Lilia Sabitova (People's Artist of Russia) in 1993 to the classic Marina Alexandrova and Vitaly Zabelin in 1996; danseur and upstart choreographer Anatolie Emelianov and Honored Artist of Russia Tatiana Predenia in 2002; Varna IBC Gold Medalists Cristina and Alexei Terentiev in 2006; and award winning partners Karyna Shatkovskaya and Vladimir Tkachenko in 2011. Moscow Ballet’s Great Russian Nutcracker celebrates 20 years of soaring holiday spirit!

final-scene-act-1

Moscow Ballet and the O'Brien Center of the Arts announce Moscow Ballet Summer Intensive in Petaluma, CA from August 6 to 11, 2012; classes will be held Monday to Friday, 10 am to 4 pm. Moscow Ballet brings Russian soloist Natalia Miroshnyk to the U.S. to teach the Vaganova method and classic ballet repertory. She will give two 2-hour classes daily in technique, pointe, and variations from the classics such as Swan Lake. The Intensive is open to pre-pointe (less than 1 year pointe training) and en pointe ballet students of all ages. In addition, Miroshnyk and Intensive students will present a Russian Tea lecture/demonstration Saturday afternoon, August 11. Intensive participants gain invaluable ballet experience in the Russian tradition, which is known the world over for excellence in training and execution.

The Moscow Ballet Intensive program offers young American dancers, who otherwise have limited access to the classical Russian style, a unique opportunity to work closely with a professional Russian ballerina. Center Stage Dance is Moscow Ballet’s Host Studio for auditioning local student dancers to perform alongside the company of 40 Russian dancers in the Great Russian Nutcracker production, coming to Santa Rosa for 2 performances on December 23.

To register for the Summer Intensive, contact JLIB_HTML_CLOAKING or 707.338.0718 and reserve “one-on-one time” with a Russian ballerina.
