Due to popular demand, the Bolshoi Theatre will present additional performances of The Queen of Spades – a large-scale collaboration between Russia’s two leading opera houses.
Following the resounding success of the first performance of this production on the Bolshoi Theatre’s Historic Stage, the decision was made to add further dates to the December repertoire. Three performances of The Queen of Spades will now take place on 13 December (commencing at 19.00) and 14 December (commencing at 12.00 and 19.00).
Leading soloists from both the Mariinsky and Bolshoi theatres will sing the principal roles, accompanied by the Bolshoi Theatre’s Chorus and Orchestra under the baton of maestro Valery Gergiev.
The libretto is by Modest Tchaikovsky, based on Alexander Pushkin’s eponymous novella. The production team includes Valery Gergiev (music director), Alexei Stepanyuk (stage director), Alexander Orlov (set designer) and Irina Cherednikova (costume designer).
Tickets are available for purchase on the Bolshoi Theatre website: bolshoi.ru
