“Ruslan and Lyudmila is a special work for our entire history and culture, which has never been put on ice in its 200 years of existence. That is why it was important for me to attract not only the best skaters from around the world to the project, but also to select for each role exactly the artist whose charisma and talent will be able to best reveal the character of their character. Together we will create a completely new level of performance and allow viewers to plunge into the incredible magical atmosphere of Pushkin’s most popular and beloved fairy tales, ”said Tatyana Navka.
