Voda-Eau-Water Outdoors

Voda (Вода) means water in Russian

Adaptation of Voda-Eau-Water (a journey into aquatic abysses and emergence to the surface) to outdoor spaces.

Nika Stein embodies the fantastic dimension of our imagination. She revisits folk tales full of intriguing archetypes, such as Rousalka (Slavic version of the mermaid), Toska (Lady Sadness) and Tsarevna Lebed’ (Swan Princess).
Elena Miroshnichenko‘s imaginative costumes play a key role in the performance experience, complementing the radical transformations undergone by Stein in each tableau.

Here, the character of Tsarevna Lebed’ (Swan Princess) is pictured spreading her wings surrounded by the magical scenography of a cedar grove.
