- The author's reading of the story.
The premiere of the modern ballet “Viy” in Kyiv will take place at the October Palace, directed by Radu Poklitaru and Kyiv Modern Ballet. The performance is based on the famous work of Nikolai Gogol. However, as always, Radu Poklitaru left room for his own interpretation. To your attention is a philosophical parable about the strength of the spirit, the test of the human soul, about the power of faith and despair. The main character is the same Thomas Brutus. But his inner demons are even more terrible than the evil forces around. And overcoming them is sometimes even more difficult.
