In July, the Hvorostovsky Krasnoyarsk Opera and Ballet Theatre will go on tour to Moscow; there, it’ll present three productions - Dante's Catharsis, Barbe-Bleu, and Yermak - on the stage of the Helikon-Opera Music Theatre. But in June, before the tour, Krasnoyarsk spectators will have the chance to see these productions in their city.

• June 2: Dante’s Catharsis, the ballet to the music of contemporary composers (production of the “classical modern” dance style about spiritual quests; artistic director of the project is Nikita Dmitrievsky);
• June 16: Jacques Offenbach’s opera bouffe Barbe-Bleu (musical comedy directed by Sergei Novikov);
• June 27: Alexander Tchaikovsky’s opera Yermak (based on historical events and created specifically for the Krasnoyarsk Opera House).

The metropolitan audience will see these productions on the following days:

• July 9 – Barbe-Bleu
