Anna Karenina
The great Russian novel forms the backdrop for a spectacular ballet.
Ballet by John Neumeier, inspired by Leo Tolstoi. Music by Peter I. Tchaikovsky, Alfred Schnittke, Cat Stevens/Yusuf Islam.

Bringing the “greatest social novel of world literature” (Thomas Mann) to the ballet stage: this is an art that none has mastered like John Neumeier. With Anna Karenina, he has created a classical love story that feels modern with its intimate pas de deux and festive ensembles, while Tchaikovsky’s music evokes the time the novel was written.
Performance ends at approx.: 22:15 Uhr
Sponsor: Männi and Didi Herrmann
In collaboration with: the Bolshoi Ballet and The National Ballet of Canada.
