Spartacus - passionate and pretentious tragedy on a historical subject with an abundance of contemporary allusions. Classical dance, represented in all the splendor and variety of forms, in a new production has become a major, if not the only means of expression. It is a classical dance, reigned in the monologues, duets, crowd scenes - virtuosic and powerful, imbued with feeling and thought.

Giselle- a romantic story of tragic love. Giselle is simply mesmerizing. The greatness of love, the sublime and enlightened sense reminds us that true feelings last forever!
