A modern version of the classic play from 1945, resurrected in a style fit for a digital-age audience. This production’s calling card has become its successful marriage of lovely ballet from years gone by and modern stage technology. Visual computer effects peacefully coexist with traditional costumes and props. Rostislav Zakharov, to whom the premiere is dedicated in celebration of the 110th anniversary of his birth, described his production as „a song about the spring of human life, youth, happiness and dreams“. While working on the new version, Mikhail Messerer followed the mood set by the ballet’s creator.

An opera for children written by Boris Asafiev in 1906, and staged in the style of the renowned Soviet film of the same name, which was released in 1947. It is a marvellous, magical tale in which the heroine, with the help of a fairy, turns into a princess overnight and finds herself at the royal ball. The opera brings warm smiles to the faces of adults, while it fills children with excitement and joy, and teaches them empathy and compassion. Based on the story by Charles Perrault and the screenplay by Evgeny Schwartz, the opera is a wonderful first introduction to musical theatre, in which the music complements the dance and the spoken dialogue.
