Eifman Ballet
Venue: Zellerbach Hall A Price: $30/$42/$56 "This Russian dancemaker and his dancers are among the most fascinating artists before the public today," raved the San Francisco Chronicle, following Eifman Ballet's triumphant 2003 premiere of Red Giselle. Widely considered Russia's greatest living choreographer, Boris Eifman founded his own company, the Leningrad Ballet Ensemble, almost 30 years ago, and quietly revolutionized Soviet dance by devising his own imaginative and inimitable style — fusing ballet's emotion and expressiveness with the storytelling techniques of 20th-century theater and film. His boldly theatrical and inventive St. Petersburg troupe returns to the Bay Area to perform two full-length works: the premiere of Eifman's Anna Karenina, a brand new work set to Tchaikovsky and based on the famous Tolstoy novel; and Eifman's critically acclaimed Don Juan & Molière, a satirical and seductive dance-drama set to Mozart and Berlioz.
