Nina Kaptsova and Igor Kromushin in Onegin, Bolshoi Ballet, June 2017. © Damir Yusupov.

Nina Kaptsova performed the role in Onegin that evening and poured every emotion into the final spine-tingling moments of the ballet. In the 3rd act, many years after the first childhood scenes, Tatiana has become a gracious and loving wife to her caring, protective husband, Prince Gremin, nicely performed by Igor Kromushin. Dressed in a gorgeous red ballgown, their gentle duet of plunging arabesques and swirling turns showed her happiness and satisfaction with the aristocratic life she is now leading. Everything for her is serene and fulfilling.
