Raymonda: Kremlin Ballet on 14 November 2026

When: 14 November 2026

Where: State Kremlin Palace, Great Hall, Moscow

Raymonda transports its audience into a chivalric story and the world of grand classical ballet. Alexander Glazunov’s music gives the performance its ceremonial scale, while the heroine’s choice is shaped by two very different suitors.

Kremlin Ballet presents Andris Liepa’s production, incorporating choreography by Marius Petipa and Alexander Gorsky. It offers a chance to see how a recognisable classical language lives on in a particular stage interpretation.

What to watch for

Look beyond the principal roles to the changing character of the dances: the heroine’s lyrical story sits alongside festive scenes and large ensembles. For a first-time ballet visitor, Raymonda offers a complete theatrical evening with an accessible chivalric plot.

The production has two acts. The organiser lists a running time of around two hours and a 12+ age rating. Check the cast for this date in the theatre’s current listings.
