From 15 to 25 April the Mariinsky Theatre will be running its anniversary tenth International Ballet Festival – one of the highlights of the world’s ballet season which draws balletomanes from across the globe to St Petersburg.

The festival will see performances by Alina Cojocaru ( Royal Opera House, Covent Garden ), David Hallberg and Daniil Simkin ( American Ballet Theatre ), Polina Semionova ( Staatsballett Berlin ), Mathieu Ganio ( Opera de Paris ), leading Bolshoi Theatre soloists Natalia Osipova, Svetlana Zakharova, Maria Alexandrova and Andrei Uvarov and lead Mariinsky Theatre Diana Vishneva, Ulyana Lopatkina, Alina Somova, Viktoria Teryoshkina, Yekaterina Kondaurova, Igor Zelensky, Leonid Sarafanov, Andrian Fadeyev and Vladimir Shklyarov.

In line with tradition, the festival opens with a premiere. This year it will be Rodion Shchedrin’s ballet Anna Karenina with choreography by Alexei Ratmansky, making it the ballet master’s latest work for the Mariinsky Theatre. In the premiere performances the lead roles will be performed by Diana Vishneva ( 15 April ) and Ulyana Lopatkina ( 16 April ), two outstanding Mariinsky Theatre ballerinas with different artistic temperaments and performing styles. They will be partnered by Andrian Fadeyev ( 15 April ) and Yuri Smekalov ( 16 April ).
