The Mariinsky Press Office informs me that the program of three new works, ("New Names") that premiered in St. Petersburg last March has been nominated for the Golden Mask awards. Thus the Mariinsky Theatre will be bringing the program to Moscow on March 4 and 5, 2007. As a reminder/refresher, that program includes:

Le Bourgeois Gentilhomme
Choreography: Nikita Dmitrievsky
Music: Richard Strauss

Du Cote du Chez Swann
Choreography: Alexei Miroshnichenko
Music: Leonid Desyatnikov

Overcoat after Gogol
Choreography: Noah Gelber
Music: Dmitrii Shostakovich

Just a note to add that those performances will take place in the Bolshoi Theatre.
