Kremlin Ballet performs with the Orpheus Radio Orchestra. Live orchestral music and choreography create a theatrical evening in which movement, sound and stage action carry the story.

Another encounter with a familiar tale

The production invites its audience to see the characters beyond their place in a childhood story. The announcement specifically describes Kai and Gerda as grown up, an important consideration when choosing a family performance.

The ballet has two acts and a 12+ age rating. It is distinct from The Snow Queen ice show at VTB Arena, which has different music, dates and a different format.
