Eifman’s Ballet “Crime and Punishment”

Please note, cast changes are possible.

Director: Boris Eifman

On New Year's Eve, the Boris Eifman Theatre's ballet "Crime and Punishment" will once again be performed at the Alexandrinsky Theatre in St. Petersburg. The choreography, sets, and costumes will recreate the profound psychological drama from Fyodor Dostoevsky's novel. Tickets for the ballet "Crime and Punishment" at the Alexandrinsky Theatre are now on sale.

The world premiere of the production took place in 2024, but this work was far from Eifman's first attempt to adapt great literary works, especially the work of Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoevsky, to ballet. The choreographer previously turned to the novels "The Idiot" and "The Brothers Karamazov," creating two famous productions based on them.

Eifman does not seek to literally transfer the original text to the stage. However, the choreographer clearly conveys Rodion Raskolnikov's struggle with himself and the reasons why he turns to sin.

He explores the emotional images and inner worlds of the characters, allowing the audience to see not only the external events of the plot but also the hidden motives, feelings, and experiences of the main characters. His unique approach allows him to reveal the depths of human consciousness and the internal conflict of each character, making the performance lively, understandable, and relatable for everyone.

Each new creation by Boris Eifman invariably captivates audiences and critics with its artistic depth and unique ability to express the deepest sides of the human soul. The ballet "Crime and Punishment" has become another masterpiece of this outstanding choreographer. Don't miss the opportunity to see him on the stage of one of the best theaters in St. Petersburg!
