Description
Summary:Directed by Lithuanian choreographer, Anzelica Cholina, this multiple award-winning Vakhtangov Theatre production of Anna Karenina tells the story of Tolstoy's classic novel entirely in contemporary dance.

The distinctive music of Alfred Schnittke helps to reveal the inner turmoil of the characters and their depth.
