The Performance
This play about Rudolf Nureyev, a star of world ballet of the 21st century, was born on the stage of St. Petersburg in 2007. Since then, more than a million enthusiastic spectators around the world have warmly remembered this amazing, clear and touching spectacle narrated by Sergey Yankovsky.
The spectacle is unique in its genre: the acting skills of Sergey Yankovsky are inextricably intertwined with the ballet. There is subtle humour and dancing, moments of utter silence, heartbreak and tears of joy. All the spectrum of feelings that a human soul can absorb in an evening.
The main theme of this performance is the enormity of the personality, which does not lose its dignity and strength even five minutes before death. It is a story of a long creative path, of the development of a great artist, of a superstar's last appearance on stage.
The play is performed in two acts.
The performance lasts 2 hours and 40 minutes with one intermission.
