Anna Karenina

Streaming video - 2017

This multiple award-winning Vakhtangov Theatre production of Leo Tolstoy's masterpiece, Anna Karenina tells the story entirely in contemporary dance. In this way, Cholina succeeds in finding the equivalent of Tolstoy's words in harmony and movement, with every gesture holding meaning. The music of Alfred Schnittke helps to reveal the characters and their depth, together with elegance and mood. A crowd favorite in Moscow which plays to sold-out houses month after month, this meticulously detailed and gorgeous Anna Karenina is an example of the new Russian theater scene, fearlessly focusing on the visceral, allowing audience members to form their own interpretations.
