This grandiose epic is one of Khachaturian’s most famous works, featuring the ever popular Adagio, and has been considered one of the greatest ballets in the Bolshoi repertoire since the 1960s. Yuri Grigorovich’s powerful and athletic production with spectacular choreography and scenery remains the most critically acclaimed version of all.

Marius Petipa’s version of the ballet was part of the Bolshoi’s repertoire until the beginning of the 20th century. In 2007 Alexei Ratmansky and Yuri Burlaka presented a new choreographic version, which stands out as the most sumptuous of all. Thrilling suspense is at the core of this lavish exotic fable, an amazing production complete with pirates, kidnapping, a shipwreck, and a record 120 dancers on stage.

Cursed at birth by the evil fairy Carabosse, Princess Aurora descends into a deep slumber on the day of her 16th birthday. Only the kiss of a prince will awaken her. With glorious music by Tchaikowsky based on Charles Perrault’s classic fairy tale, Marius Petipa’s masterpiece is one of the most popular and accomplished choreographic works in the classical repertoire. The new version by Yuri Grigorovich will captivate the whole family during the Christmas season.

Inspired by the famous jewellers of New York’s Fifth Avenue, this triptych is a tribute to women, and to the cities of Paris, New York and St Petersburg using music by three great composers for each act. Choreographed in 1967 in New York City, this ballet, with its jewel-like costumes, celebrates the elegance, aesthetic and style of choreographer George Balanchine. Emeralds was conceived as a poetic tribute to the French romantic school and Rubies to the American tradition of Broadway musicals, while Diamonds honours the virtuosity of classical Russian dancers.
