  The Mikhailovsky Theatre presents the revival of Vakhtang Chabukiani's masterpiece Laurencia, based on the play Fuente Ovejuna by Lope de Vega. Chabukiani was one of the first to create a new choreographic language by means of his own particular blend of folk dance and classical ballet. To the tuneful music by Alexander Krein, Chabukiani asserted the importance of male dance, furthering in particular the notion of the "heroic" style. Laurencia was premiered of 1939 at the Kirov Theatre. Leading parts were performed by Natalia Dudinskaya (Laurencia), Vakhtang Chabukiani (Frondoso) and Tatiana Vecheslova (Pascuala). In 1956 the ballet was staged at the Bolshoi Theatre where Vakhtang Chabukiani partnered Maya Plisetskaya. London will be the first city in the world to witness the historical revival of this famous ballet, after a fifty year absence from the Russian stage, in a new full-length production created for the Mikhailovsky Ballet by Mikhail Messerer.
