The legendary family ballet-fairytale "Cipollino" with its enchanting characters is back on the native stage – the stage of the State Kremlin Palace. Once again it is on the main stage of the country where it was presented and warmly received by the public in 1977 - more than 40 years ago.
Multifaceted and deeply philosophical language of dance, sophisticated airy transitions, the finest and lightest movements along with an unrivalled choreography of Henry Mayorov (an outstanding national choreographer) lie at the heart of this ballet that brought its director the USSR State Prize.
Marvelous music composed by Karen Khachaturian, one of the most gifted and outstanding representatives of the great musical dynasty of composers and conductors Khachaturyans, brings the plot and its main ideas to life: well-designed characters are easily perceived even by the youngest spectators who experience a genuine delight and obtain a sense of beauty.
Stunning stage settings created by Valery Levental, a designer from the Bolshoi Theatre who exercises his talent both home and abroad at the world's best venues and music theaters including Italian opera houses "La Scala" (Milan) and "Teatro Comunale di Bologna" (Bologna) complement the overall picture and make the plot complete, overwhelming you with emotions and immersing you into the ballet atmosphere.
The play "Cipollino" is a true manifestation of eternal values: team spirit, solid friendship, mutual support, hope for the best and struggle for justice.
The ballet after the fairytale by Italian writer Gianni Rodari performed by the artists of the theatre "Kremlin Ballet" is intended for family viewing.
Running time: 2 hours. Presented with one interval.
