Director: Boris Eifman
In December 2025, the Alexandrinsky Theatre in St. Petersburg will host a performance of the ballet "Red Giselle" directed by Boris Eifman. The performance tells the story of the outstanding ballerina Olga Spesivtseva, whose life experienced the turbulent events of the Revolution and shocked audiences with its drama. Tickets for the ballet "Red Giselle" at the Alexandrinsky Theatre will introduce you to the details of her biography.
The artist's fate is full of creative successes and failures, forced emigration, loneliness far from her homeland, personal dramas, disappointments, and twenty years of imprisonment in a psychiatric clinic. Such an eventful life inspired choreographer Boris Eifman to create a ballet dedicated to the great dancer. The title of the production is symbolic: the word "Giselle" reflects the role performed brilliantly by Spesivtseva, and the adjective "red" emphasizes the impact of the revolution on her life. The premiere of the production generated enormous interest. For many years, it successfully toured Russian and international theaters, but was later excluded from the repertoire. Many years later, in 2015, Boris Eifman brought the production back to the stage, enriching it with new choreographic elements and preserving the original plot.
"Red Giselle" tells not only of Olga Spesivtseva's personal tragedy but also serves as a unique memorial to the many cultural figures who left the country and faced difficult fates.
