I took a quick look at the major Bolshoi discussion forum (in russian), sometimes referred to in english as "Ballet Friends," and there are 15 internet pages(!) of discussion already, starting back in April with 21,000(!) views. The interest is certainly there.

According to the Bolshoi's own site there will be four performances, starting Thursday night and running through Sunday.
