Immerse yourself in Pushkin's Dreams on the Luzhniki stage
Imagine not just a sequence of numbers, but a single magical performance woven from the famous fairy tales of the great poet, such as "The Tale of Tsar Saltan", "Ruslan and Lyudmila", "The Tale of the Golden Cockerel" and others, as well as pages from his biography. A journey to the mysterious Lukomorye with its talking Cat, a visit to the enigmatic Buyan Island and a date with the miracles and battles described in the works of the classic awaits you. Not only the heroes of the fairy tales will be your guides in this fantastic world, but also Alexander Sergeevich himself! He will be assisted by his faithful companions - the revived Inkwell, Pen and Paper. This unexpected and witty element adds a special appeal to the story, connecting the world of creativity with its source.
Dance numbers will turn into a language that will tell stories no worse than words. Music based on Russian melodies and works based on Pushkin's poems will create a unique atmosphere. Modern lighting effects, projections and stage technologies will take you inside Pushkin's dreams, making the invisible visible and the fabulous tangible. The exceptional skill of the artists in aerial gymnastics, equilibristics and other circus disciplines will become an expression of emotions and the plot.
A total of 20 numbers will be presented. Each of them is a small masterpiece that combines circus art, dramatic action and visual poetry. The show involves 60 artists: soloists, acrobats, dancers and gymnasts - real masters of their craft will revive the images from Pushkin's works. The costumes are also impressive: bright and detailed, they are created with imagination and historical accuracy, transferring the audience to the era of Pushkin and his fairy-tale worlds. In addition, the authors promise many good jokes for all ages. Get ready for a lot of smiles this evening – that’s the promised minimum!
“Pushkin’s Dreams” is a new word in circus art, where literary heritage comes to life through a synthesis of genres. You can buy tickets for the theatrical circus show “Pushkin’s Dreams” in Luzhniki on our website. This is a performance for the whole family: it immerses viewers in the world of Russian fairy tales and poetry, amazes with the skill of the artists and modern technologies, pleases with humor and a good atmosphere; unites generations with love for Pushkin and beauty.
