Classical Ballet Evening of one-act Ballets by William Forsythe
World famous Mariinsky Ballet and Opera - established 1783


Schedule for Evening of one-act Ballets by William Forsythe 2022

Choreography: William Forsythe

Orchestra: Mariinsky Theatre Symphony Orchestra

Choreography: William Forsythe

Staging, lighting and costumes: William Forsythe

WILLIAM FORSYTHE can justly be called the true heir of George Balanchine, the 20th century’s greatest choreographer, and, via Balanchine, of Marius Petipa - and thus of the great dance traditions of the Mariinsky Theatre. Forsythe, who set the course for the development of ballet at the close of the 20th and start of the 21st centuries, had previously never been to Russia. A planned installation by the Kremlin walls was forbidden by the authorities in Moscow. In 2002, he came to St Petersburg for the first time where he and four dancers from the Frankfurter Ballett amazed the public at the MARIINSKY ballet festival with the work Artifact-II. One year later, a group of Mariinsky Theatre dancers travelled to Forsythe’s studio in Frankfurt. At last, the Mariinsky Theatre and Forsythe came to an agreement to stage three of his famous ballets at the Mariinsky Theatre.
