Natalia Osipova will perform in Perm for the first time

On December 10, the prima-ballerina of the Mikhailovsky Theater, the London Royal Ballet and the American Ballet Theater Natalya Osipova will be released for the first time on the stage of the Perm Opera and Ballet Theater.

According to the theater press service, on December 10 and 11, Natalya Osipova and Perm Ballet Prime Minister Nikita Chetverikov will be fulfilled by the title parties in the performance of Kenneth Makmillan "Romeo and Juliet."

The performance of the ballerina is dedicated to the 125th anniversary of Sergei Prokofiev.

In the creative career of Natalia Osipova, the party of Juliet in the performance of Makmillan occupies a special place. In 2012, she brought the ballerina a loud success in the United States, and in 2013 it became the first for her in the royal ballet. According to Osipova, in this role "you can be an actress, and not just a dancer."

“The very role of Juliet <...> is closer to my individuality. When I was younger, I preferred to dance more temperamental and passionate heroines. But when you are older and more experienced in feelings and love, the heroines who have these qualities are more impressive, ”the ballerina said in an interview with Dance Europe .

The ballet "Romeo and Juliet" in the choreography of Kenneth Makmillan opened the Diaghilev festival of 2013.

On December 10 and 11, Prokofiev’s score will be presented by the Musicaeterna orchestra under the direction of the artistic director of the Perm Opera and Ballet Theodore Krentzis.
