Leo Tolstoy's Anna Karenina is one of the great novels of world literature. In John Neumeier’s 2017 dance interpretation, he breaks the plot down to its essentials and brings Tolstoy's masterpiece from the 19th century into the present day. To music by Peter Tchaikovsky, Alfred Schnittke and Cat Stevens / Yusuf Islam, Neumeier creates a modern portrait of society by means of three families’ intertwining fates. With Anna Karenina as the proud woman at the center, the choreographer has created a narrative ballet that features a strong female protagonist who is ultimately destroyed by prejudice and double standards.
