Dmitry Belyanushkin, less than two weeks ago, made its debut at the Bolshoi Theatre of Russia as a director of the opera "The Story of Kai and Gerda," arrived in Yekaterinburg and was involved in the preparation of Christmas concerts.

This is the third statement promising young Russian director to address the Ural public. The result can be seen on the stage of the Yekaterinburg Opera and Ballet Theatre 20 and 21 December. For the musical part of the program meets the principal guest conductor of the theater Mikhail Granovsky.

Magical journey continues! Last year, as you recall, we wandered around the theater backstage. And now a large and happy viewing now go for a walk on the night of Yekaterinburg, where on Christmas night come true miracles and fulfilled dreams come true - come to life monuments and the janitor's broom turns into a beautiful stranger. "Gala concert lets you mix many genres, and we will certainly use it. Drama, comedy, and poetry, and the grotesque - everything will be in the evening "- promises the director.

As always, Belyanushkin works in tandem with the artist Olga Zhurkov that laconic means guest theatrical magician on stage creates the image of the modern metropolis.

"Stop, subway station, shops, cafes - places that city residents learn even hints and where the new year most unexpected things happen: meetings, dating, breaking up ... - shares his thoughts director and adds:" I would like the viewer to left out of the theater with the feeling that the city in which he lives, is beautiful, and it would be another reason to take a stroll through its streets on the eve of the holiday. "

Belyanushkin no secret that repelled by her own feelings, and not afraid to show sentimental: "Ekaterinburg is very beautiful, I have met many wonderful people here, and I wanted to dedicate our Christmas history of the city and all who live here."

But the theater was not theater, if not surprised his audience of the original tree. Last year we were building it from the chairs and decorated objects of theatrical props, this year's surprises will not be less since the advent of the trees, which grow on the stage in front of the public.

If we talk about the musical content of the concert, it is expected a lot of the prime minister. The highlight of the program will be a fragment of Britten's opera "Midsummer Night's Dream", which is a children's choir is learning specifically for the holiday - the director brought his own music from Musical Theater of Stanislavsky and Nemirovich-Danchenko, where two years ago, the Russian premiere loud. And hear the music, without which does not do any holiday concert - a drinking from "La Traviata" by Verdi, "Polka" by Strauss, the final ensemble of the "Marriage of Figaro" by Mozart, Adagio from "The Nutcracker" and more.

Original choreography choreographer composes Hope Malygina -Modern Romeo and Juliet warmed in each other's arms in the subway, and who does not want to freeze to death in the New Year night waiting for the last tram, famously splyashet Russian dance at the bus stop.
