Eifman Ballet Closes Segerstrom Center's 2012-13 Dance Season, 5/3-5

Segerstrom Center for the Arts ends its 2012 - 13 International Dance season with the return of Eifman Ballet of St. Petersburg performing its powerful production of Rodin May 3 - 5.

This seventh visit to the Center by the Eifman is both the exclusive West Coast engagement of the company and the West Coast premiere of this extraordinary new ballet. Rodin is an exploration of the inner workings of the life and creative work of the great sculptor Auguste Rodin and his tormented relationship with his apprentice, lover and muse, Camille Claudel. Set to music by Camille Saint-Saëns, Jules Massenet and Maurice Ravel, Rodin is a massive utterance of the tragic nature of the lives of geniuses.
