The Eifman Ballet of St. Petersburg brings bold storytelling to the stage with its signature 'psychological ballet' approach. Founded in 1977 by Boris Eifman (originally Leningrad New Ballet), the company has earned international recognition for dense dramatic narratives told through movement, characterization, and innovative staging. From classics like Anna Karenina to modern reimaginings such as The Pygmalion Effect, the company pushes the boundaries of ballet while staying rooted in Russian theatrical tradition.
