Onegin

Exactly sixty years ago, the first version of Onegin, arguably John Cranko's most famous ballet, premiered in Stuttgart. It would receive its final cut two years later, followed by international acclaim another two years after that, during a tour of the United States.

Within the span of twenty years (that is one generation), the Prague’s National Theatre ballet-goers have had the unique opportunity to experience four stagings of a ballet based on Alexander Sergeyevich Pushkin’s famous verse-novel Eugene Onegin.
