Tickets for all Lincoln Center Festival events (including the Kirov) went on sale yesterday. The box office won't be open till June 10th, but you can buy them now at www.lincolncenter.org  . Casting is there too!
It seems they might be going kind of fast, so...

Thank you, Alexandra:)

A slight change: Matvienko will have to be replaced in Jewels. He has left the Kirov to join the Dutch National Ballet.
I only hope that that's the only "major" cast change will see:)
