The ballet Snow Maiden was created by the outstanding choreographer Vladimir Burmeister under commission by the London Festival Ballet. In 1963, it was recreated on stage of the K. S. Stanislavsky and V. I. Nemirovich-Danchenko Music Theatre. Its plot is based on Alexander Ostrovsky’s play of the same title. The music score was compiled of various popular works by Tchaikovsky, such as the music for the Ostrovsky fairy-tale, Symphony no. 1 (“Winter Daydreams”), the Serenade for Strings, a piano sonata, etc.
In 2001, a new stage version was created. The major changes concerned the stage design, which was made more modern. On December of the same year The Snow Maiden was shown in London during the Theatre’s guest performances. The latter were a success beyond all expectations; the influential newspaper The Independent counted them among the major cultural events of the season.
