Dance Dance Dance - Final

Leading dancers of the Mariinsky Ballet, Honoured Artists of Russia Igor Kolb, Danila Korsuntsev and Evgeny Ivanchenko, in the project -

"Dance. Dance. Dance " - three ballets, three dancers, three choreographers.

The three dancers, soloing in the new project, are called the "Knights of dance" in the ballet world. This noble title was assigned to them a few years ago after an evening program of the same name at the Mariinsky Theatre.

The world premiere of "Dance. Dance. Dance" presents three one-act ballets created by young choreographers specifically for Igor Kolb, Danila Korsuntsev and Yevgeny Ivanchenko. Works of Mariinsky Theatre premier dancers, who are equally proficient in both classical and contemporary choreography, are completely independent productions in the style of choreographic miniatures – one-act performances, to which Mikhail Fokin paid special attention at the beginning of the twentieth century and which were then actively developed by many innovative choreographers. Leaving the set free for dancing, they staged ballet-tragedies and ballet-comedies, genre sketches and moldable compositions filled with mimic expressiveness, a vocabulary of symbols and allegories, techniques of pantomime or declamation, sports or household eurhythmics, psychologization of characters.
