The new production by young Moscow choreographer Sona Ovsepyan is based on Choderlos de Laclos’s popular novel Les liaisons dangereuses (Dangerous Liaisons). Written in the late 18th century, the novel has since excited people’s minds and hearts. It has been adapted many times into various media, including ballet.
The “New Ballet” Theatre’s production brings together three elements: Ezio Bosso’s music, Sona Ovsepyan’s new, up-to-date interpretation of the novel and the impetuous courage and fervor shown by the dancers. The dramatic events are unfolding right before the audience’s eyes at rapid- fire pace, carrying the spectators away into the depth of the novel and revealing all the facets of the characters’ life: power and self-sacrifice, perfidy and weakness, fury and despair…
The main characters who play dangerous games with people, manipulating them like puppets on strings, eventually become victims of their own intrigues, falling into their own traps.
The finale is lucid, tragic and edifying.
