Evgenia Obraztsova and Artem Ovcharenko in Satanella.

Ovcharenko's musicality is so underappreciated, he is so good.

Casting is Out For Premiere of Lavrosky's Romeo and Juliet at the Bolshoi!

April 4th (opening night):

Juliet: Elizaveta Kokoreva Romeo: Daniil Potaptsev Mercutio: Daniil Lopatin Tybalt: Mikhail Lobukhin

April 5th:

Juliet: Evgenia Obraztsova Romeo: Artem Ovcharenko Mercutio: Alexei Putintsev Tybalt: Alexander Vodopetov

April 6th (matinée):

Juliet: Eleonora Sevenard Romeo: Denis Rodkin Mercutio: Mark Chino Tybalt: Nikita Kapustin

April 6th (evening):

Juliet: Svetlana Zakharova Romeo: Artemy Belyakov Mercutio: Dmitry Smilevsky Tybalt: Denis Savin

April 7th:

Juliet: Ekaterina Krysanova Romeo: Vladislav Lantratov Mercutio: Denis Zakharov Tybalt: Igor Pugachev

Very excited about some of the line-ups! I'm especially excited about Sevenard performing Juliet as well as the Kokoreva-Potaptsev pairing, and Krysanova-Lantratov will be lovely. But I'm not as crazy about Zakharova performing Juliet. I just don't see her as the youthful and sweet fourteen-year-old Juliet anymore. I know her and Krysanova are relatively similar in age, but for me I see Krysanova far more as Juliet. Still, it's Svetlana Zakharova, so I'm sure she'll pull it off.

Anyway, I'm very excited for this premiere!

P.S. Would love to see Vinogradova and Maymula as Juliet in this ballet at some point as well!

Do you find it weird that a bunch of Bolshoi dancers have had kids together? Eg Klim Efinov & Ksenia Zhiganshina, Daria Kholokova & Artemy Belyakov, Anna Tikhomirova & Artem Ovcharenko, Maria Vinogradova & Ivan Vasiliev?

I don’t know if they’re banging each other to get promotions and better roles, or if it’s a personal choice, but it’s super weird that they would all get down and dirty in recent years…especially Vinogradova. I thought Osipova/Vasiliev would be married and do their thing, but the universe/God has other plans.

(Side note: From what I’ve read, Osipova really wants to have a child! I’m praying for her every night so that she can conceive and give birth healthily)

I don't find it weird, I think it's a side-effect of the profession. A lot of super-expressive, emotional people spend all of their time dancing together and it's super easy for feelings to develop in this kind of situation.

But I certainly don't think it's that nefarious at all most of the time. There are certainly exceptions to this, I'm thinking of Balanchine's numerous relationships, as well as some of the more political relationships that have happened. But for most of the average couples? I think they simply fell in love due to convenience, common lifestyle and understanding, and the romance of ballet and the performing arts in general.

Osipova/Vasiliev had their own problems that have been discussed to no end, and I think their super similar personalities probably contributed a lot to it, but luckily they both seem quite happy in their respective partnerships.
