“ I think that almost all reviews of these performances start with the same words “it was very unusual”. And there is nothing surprising in this, because, as it seems to me, we all use the same pattern for the word “ballet”. And in the ballet "Moscow" we will not see girls in white tutus dancing the immortal dance of swans. Instead, the girls in white office shirts converge in a passion and erotic dance: There are no lakes, castles, or fabulous living rooms. In general, there is no scenery, there is only a ruthless play of light, color and shadow. There is no Tchaikovsky’s music that carries away in fantasy, there is music more reminiscent of the works of Jean-Michel Jarre, owned by German, Japanese and Dutch composers - bewitching, a little otherworldly, making you remember the pulse of the temples, the rhythm of the big city. This is another art, not like what we are used to. This is a modern art based on ancient Greek myths - an extraordinary combination. This is a Dutch ballet, where choreographers have only an indirect relation to the Netherlands (choreographer Juanho Arques - Spaniard, Annabelle Lopez Ochoa - half Colombian, half Belgian). In general, you can probably say that this is the art of the world's citizens, not related to their nationality. And the effect is stunning (I, of course, not about those who went to this performance purposefully, I'm about those who, like us, visited it for the first time). At first, disbelief, shock, rejection, and then the realization of how beautiful it is, how beautiful the human body is, how magnificent what the dancers do. You have to come here with a professional camera and take pictures, take pictures, if, of course, they allow it. Of course, A special role in the play is played by Ot Clemann, the performer of Theseus’s parts (? I’m a little unsure which of these were Theseus, and which is the Minotaur) and the unusual Eros, who is not at all like Cupid-Amurchik. How many emotions, passions and strength! What a magnificent plastic - the body as if spills from pose to pose, flows, flows. For his sake alone it was worth a look. Yes, yes, there is something devilishly scary in the god of love. But let's think about how much misfortune mankind brought the all-consuming passion, which he rules? Does she always give only happiness? Is everyone ready to accept her? In a word, an amazing action: there is something to see, and there is something to think about, which, you see, is not typical for every ballet.

“ The second act ("Eros") - just great! Stunning choreography! Elegant performance! Has received unforgettable pleasure, thanks!

“ So far the best production of Ballet Moscow from those that have seen. Many thanks to all the actors. Separate applause to Constantine Matulevsky.
