Experience John Neumeier's classical ballet interpretation of Shakespeare's celebrated fantasy comedy. This iconic production from 1977 is regarded today as one of the most acclaimed and frequently performed works in modern ballet history.
Neumeier's artistic mastery lies in his innovative dramaturgical approach: the narrative is divided into three visually and musically distinct worlds that blend elegantly together through love's chaotic adventure. The star couple Anna Laudere and Edvin Revazov portray Hippolyta/Titania and Theseus/Oberon respectively with outstanding grace and artistic power. Soloist Alexandr Trusch receives particular praise for his dual role as the court marshal Philostrat and the forest's wild, bestial elf Puck – here he displays his full range with spectacular acrobatics, comic timing and magnetic charisma, as he guides the audience through the forest's enchanted drama.
