One of the most successful European choreographers of our time, Yuri Vámos, has won acclaim for his highly individual adaptations of such ballet classics as The Nutcracker, Romeo and Juliet, or Spartacus. In his version of The Sleeping Beauty, he transformed, in close collaboration with the stage artist Michael Scott, the traditional fairy-tale subject into a spectacular ballet drama dealing with the happy life and tragic end of the Russian imperial family. In the ballet’s scenes set at the court, he evokes the figure of Anna Anderson, who spent her whole life in the belief of being the Tsar’s daughter. In Anna Anderson-Anastasia’s recollections, aristocratic scenes in the imperial palace metamorphose into images of an innocent childhood spent amid splendour, as well as into a reminiscence of the classical Russian ballet with all its virtuoso attributes. The production promises a very special experience to look forward to by all lovers of strong story-telling, as well as by aficionados of top-class mastery of the art of ballet.
