Natalia Osipova and Ivan Vasiliev to Make Their Debut in Laurencia
Laurencia, the dynamic and colourful ballet based on Lope de Vega’s play, seems to have been created especially for Natalia Osipova and Ivan Vasiliev, who recently joined the Mikhailovsky Theatre company.
Choreographed by the legendary Vakhtang Chabukiani, this ballet continues the tradition of the Spanish classics, while giving the dancers the opportunity to demonstrate their presence and letting their mastery shine through.
Afisha magazine is certain that Natalia Osipova and Ivan Vasiliev “will dance this ballet phenomenally”, stating that Laurencia “gives full rein to their popular charm”. “They are both masters of the type of dance that Chabukiani loved, with pirouettes that give off sparks and wild leaps that call forth a tsunami of applause in the auditorium”, anticipates Afisha reviewer Yulia Yakovleva. She also adds: “If it has been a long time since you applauded until your palms burned under the skin, this Laurencia is for you”.
Natalia Osipova will appear as Laurencia and Ivan Vasiliev as Frondoso in performances scheduled for 20 and 22 January.
