aqualia2008 Posted November 28, 2014 Author Share Posted November 28, 2014 Irina Perren is that ballerina you always encounter in these Russian tours -- refined, exquisite, and, for reasons known only to the company, not dancing leading roles. Perren as Nikiya and Vasiliev as Solor. The second video (Shades) a bit disappointing imho. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R293_YYupg8 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HuzbQDR4ZL4 Link to comment

Jayne Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Victor Lebedev is the principal in a consider number of June performances. I hope his back is not too sore! Link to comment
naomikage Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 I went to St Petersburg late April to see a few performances, Bolshoi's Taming, Mikhailovsky's La Fille Mal Gardee, Mariinsky's Ballet Russes program and Vishneva's 20th anniversary Giselle. All performances were enjoyable, but the one made me smile most was Fille at Mikhailovsky. La Fille Mal Gardee is a new repertoire to the company so of course the dancers are not accustomed to the Ashton style but the performance was so cheerful, loved the chickens, and above all, Anastasia Soboleva and Victor Lebedev were both brilliant, so sunny and delightful, light as air leaps. Soboleva's strong pointe and musicality, Lebedev's virtuosity and beautiful classical technique. Both wonderful and their partnership was amazing, they are so good together and the audience were very enthusiastic. The performance made me cry with such happiness and joy filling the stage. Here is the curtain call video I took. https://youtu.be/JPrXYGhu8GY Link to comment

naomikage Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 It seems Irina Perren and Marat Shemiunov's names appears on the Mikhailovsky Ballet's company website. Hope they have returned to the company. http://mikhailovsky.ru/theatre/company/ballet/ Link to comment

Drew Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 Ekaterina Borchenko received the reward “Soul of the dance” in the nominee “Star” from the magazine “Ballet”. Our warmest congratulations and all the very best! Very nice news--congratulations to Ekaterina Borchenko. My impression from the Mikhailovsky website is, like that of Naomikage, that Irina Perren is once again dancing with the company--so her dismissal was, so to speak, reversed...I hope that's right.
