Modern Dance Ballet of Boris Eifman St Petersburg State Academic Ballet Theatre of Boris Eifman was founded in 1977. The theatee which was called Leningrad Ballet Ensemble originally appeared as the author’s one, the theatre of one choreographer which was a unique event in those days. Having neither stage, nor permanent rehearsal space, with a small group of dancers, the theatre managed to produce the strongest impression with its very first program; those who saw TWO VOICES with Alla Osipenko and John Markovsky still remember the show as a shock. The ballet BOOMERANG also became a brave experiment about which The New York Times wrote an article under the title: Boris Eifman is the man who dared. Just using the music of Pink Floyd, D. Mc Laflin, R. Wakeman (YES) equaled a riot, and combining that music with strikingly emotional, free from academic cliches choreography brought Eifman the reputation of choreographic dissident.
