Lilla Pártay's first full-length creative work is a dance drama of international calibre. With extraordinary meticulousness, the choreographer has employed the steps of both classical and modern ballet in the same way that she has also wonderfully combined Tchaikovsky's classical music with the modern sounds of Zoltán Rácz and the Amadinda Percussion Ensemble. Speaking about the adaptation process, she herself said: “When I started, I wanted to take everything in the novel for my own version of Anna Karenina: starting from the powerful and affecting horse racing episode all the way to the death of Levin's brother. After that, the plot gradually simplified, and I focused more and more on the inner life of the characters: on their destinies and sufferings.” The essence of the monumental novel is being brought to life on the ballet stage in a dramatic performance brimming with emotions.
