"Conservatory" choreographed by the Danish choreographer August Burnonvilâ – classic masterpiece, an example of strict academism. It is one of the oldest ballets, dating from the year 1848. Yekaterinburg theater will show viewers only the most interesting part of it is a divertissement, a lesson in classical dance. Seen in theatrical form, as artists grind their skills in dance halls, will certainly be interesting to everyone.

"Five Argentinean tango music composer Astor Piazzolla, staged by Hans van Manen first enters the Repertoire of Russian Theatre (world premiere of the Ballet took place in the year 1977 in Amsterdam). Choreographer Hans van Manen is one of the pillars of European neo-classical dance, and this setting has already become a classic of the 20th century. It has a totally different style, different aesthetics – external purity of shape, concision, minimalism. The dance of van Manen has strong internal stress and it conquers. "Five Tango is a ballet of zataennoj passions boiling inside and outside very low-key. "Hot ice" – so briefly and precisely described style van Manen. This northern European perception of Argentine Tango dance is like a ice block, which slowly melts from the inside, "says artistic director of Ballet Theater, Vyacheslav Samodurov.
