“We are professionals and we can dance in any stage”, said Maria
Alexandrovna, solo-dancer of the Russian State Academic Bolshoi
Theater during the press conference today in hotel Yerevan.

She meant the stage of the Opera and Ballet building after Spendiaryan
where 20 years later the Russian Bolshoi Theater will perform “The
Swan Lake” and “Romeo and Juliet”.

On May 21-24 in the “Armenian” stage such stars of Ballet as Maria
Alexandrovna, Vladimir Neporojnin, Anna Antonicheva, Jan Gadovski,
Anastasia Meskova, Denis Savin and Alexander Volckov will dance. The
band conductor will be Pavel Klinichev. The tickets cost 3000-25000
drams.

Asked a question by a journalist if the audience may have forgotten
them during this long interval, solo dancer Vladimir Neporojin said,
“This art is difficult to forget. They will remember it for the first 5
minutes. This is a silent art; no words are needed. It is love, hatred
and jealousy. They will understand everything from the movements”.

By the way, the guests of Armenia are glad that there is a cultural
connection between the two countries. They are also going to get
acquainted with the Armenian culture and history.
