Circus on Vernadsky Avenue snow queen program. Circus show snow queen

IN Great Circus We arrived on Vernadsky in advance. We entered the hall and immediately found ourselves on the roof! The roofs of houses were in front of us fabulous city, where Kai and Gerda lived.

I really liked the funniest and most unusual clown, Icy. The brown bears were absolutely magnificent! They performed tricks that we did not expect from the “club-footed bears”. And they were very active and artistic. Winter is over, but wouldn't it be wonderful to play in the snow with real bears? Moreover, in such huge and not at all heavy snowballs that the residents of the fairy-tale city threw at us!
Kai and Gerda's roses bloomed - red and white, and under the circus dome a beautiful rose bloomed on the gymnast's "aerial sheets". Everyone looked at this miracle with bated breath.

And then the fun began. Cheerful little white dogs ran out and quickly, dynamically, under the leadership of Kai and Gerda, showed us real circus tricks. Then Kai took a small children's bicycle, sat on it, put Gerda on it, who grabbed a small dog and made a circle around the arena to everyone's laughter. It was so much fun!
That's why Gerda went to look for a friend, because without him life would turn into an icy winter.

But there were adventures along the way. The acrobats on the pole made such masterful and unimaginable jumps that they took your breath away. We recognized them from the costumes of the courtiers and the not at all capricious princess, who turned out to be a masterly gymnast. This number was one of the coolest.
The Snow Queen also appeared and we were shown the real " Northern lights".

During the intermission, Oleg himself read the colorful program, superbly decorated with photographs of the artists, because this fall he is already going to 1st grade. We also bought a real Jedi lightsaber and popcorn, but hid it until the end of the show. Some kids were shining their swords in the dark, but we are already adults and understand that we shouldn’t interfere with others watching the performance.

In the second part, the carriage in which Gerda went in search of her friend Kai was attacked by cheerful circus robbers and torn into several parts. The leader of the robbers, the young chieftain, showed off on a beautiful white circus horse. The remaining members of the bandit gang turned out to be excellent riders, dashingly and cheerfully showing us the most difficult elements of horseback riding.

The program was so rich and varied that the children squealed with delight, and the adults felt like children for a minute. Especially when the carriage drove out and the King appeared. He walked importantly around the arena, hung his robe on a hanger, and poured himself a glass of water from the decanter.
Can't be! It was a trained chimpanzee - a sweet creature who was not averse to forgetting his royal habits and climbing up onto the table with his feet. Which pretty much surprised his valet. But we guessed that it was the trainer!

The air smelled of winter, snow and ice, and acrobats appeared in a moving ring - very beautiful room. And very difficult.
Once again we marveled at the inexhaustible imagination and skill circus performers. The most surprising thing was the trained polar bears. We had no idea that they could be trained! And they turned out to be such smart and skillful artists.
The fragile girl - the trainer - looked so defenseless next to them, but they obeyed her and did the completely unthinkable - they played on musical instruments, and one was either clapping or conducting. We just really missed our native elements - snow and ice.
Two bears lay flat on the ice and even licked it with their long pink tongues, which greatly amused the little spectators, and the adults also looked at them with great pleasure.

At the end of the performance, Kai and Gerda met in an unusual, circus-like way. He came down to her from under the circus big top. When all the circus performers came out, we gave them a standing ovation; we really liked everything that was shown to us. The performance ended, but our Oleg did not want to leave, like the other kids. He walked and looked at photographs of circus performers in the foyer and remembered the circus fairy tale about the "Snow Queen".

On this day it was drizzling and the weather was cloudy, but we were in a festive mood. And no wonder - we saw such a wonderful, wonderful, magical performance! We returned to winter fun and met circus animals. Every trip to the Great Circus on Vernadsky is an event that will be remembered for a lifetime.

Performance "The Snow Queen", which is currently on Big Moscow Circus on Vernadsky- this is no longer “just” a circus, this is a grandiose, highly professional, magnificent circus performance, which, in addition to the emotional fireworks of the senses, also gives completely aesthetic pleasure to the eyes and heart. Everyone has read Andersen's fairy tale and knows it by heart, they've watched cartoons, they've seen movies, there are musicals, they're playing in theaters, it would seem - what can surprise you?
But it turns out it’s possible and how! For me, “The Snow Queen” by Zapashnykh - the best And must seen. I always knew that everything the Zapashny brothers do has a mark of quality, and at this performance I was convinced once again. It is both difficult and easy to find words to express your admiration for what you see. It’s difficult because you don’t want to repeat hackneyed compliments, but it’s easy because it’s a fountain of emotions!)

I'm in and

The very first scene starts like this.
In the arena we see red-tiled roofs of houses. One window is open. There is a beautiful rose in a pot there. Under the dome is a fluorescent yellow crescent. Ole Lukoje appears. Then Kai and Gerda come out. By the way, they are not just artists, but also aerialists, and before our eyes they soar high into the air, and in one number Kai throws down golden stars, creating a picture of a starfall. A magical sight!
You also need to take into account the lighting and the circular video installation in the form of a snow-covered city.
All together creates a dizzying effect of being in a Fairy Tale.

The Snow Queen In addition to being two meters tall, he is also stunning in his suit!
An unprecedented, sparkling cold silver mirrored huge headdress in the form of diverging different sides frighteningly curved pieces of ice, and the same long sparkling fingers. Something gothic even slips into her image!

All the costumes are beyond praise - stylish, daring, fantastically beautiful.
The performance runs like a silent movie, without words. One scene changes another. The level of interest is growing.
Instead of a clown, there is a servant of the Queen - the Ice Troll, funny, ridiculous, and just a little bit malicious!)

I was amazed Garden of flowers!
Remember when Gerda left home to search for Kai and ended up with the Old Flower Girl in a wonderful garden?
Here it was done SO well that I even forgot that I was in a circus. Scarlet stripes of silk, a gorgeous gymnast, below are artists with huge roses on their heads, giant petals are scattered around the arena. Something surreal, in the spirit of Salvador Dali, and something similar to the Venetian carnival! Incredibly beautiful!

Room with polar bears- oooh, magnificent! unique! The foreplay was intriguing. First, they unrolled and raised a ring of mesh around the arena. Then, slowly, slowly, the ice skating rink began to rise instead of the stage. For some reason it was scary! The white bears are exactly like those on the candy wrappers of the famous Moscow sweets! Skating trainers. Polar bears, by the way, cannot be trained; they are predators, but as their trainers say: “You can negotiate with them.”
The number with polar bears is called "Northern lights", and we will see it (Aurora Borealis) in the form of pulsating light flashes under the dome, and there will also be Laplanders in fur coats beating tambourines!
It’s impossible to retell everything!

Scene in the royal castle, where Gerda came at the prompting of the crows. What beautiful costumes and curled wigs the royal subjects - acrobats - have! The king in a real tiara and a red robe with a white trim is a very funny chimpanzee, you can laugh at the way he behaved at the table.))

In the scene at the robbers we were shocked horse riding. Hurricane! What skill! Well done! Real robbers!

And I haven’t yet told you about the charming dogs, the bears, the acrobats on horses, the acrobats on throwing boards!

Don’t be confused by the name of the show “The Snow Queen” and the idea that it should only be seen in winter. This is not true, this is stereotypical thinking! “The Snow Queen” at the Great Moscow Circus on Vernadsky Avenue can not only be watched in any season in the fall-winter-winter-summer, it needs to be reviewed like any talented thing!!

From Wiki: Big Moscow state circus on Vernadsky Avenue - the largest stationary circus in Europe. The capacity of the auditoriums is more than 3,300 seats, the height of the dome is 26 meters. It has five quickly changing arenas - equestrian, ice, water, illusion and light.
The circus building belongs to the style of artistic functionalism. The service premises of the circus are completely hidden, and the townspeople are presented with a tent glazed along the entire circumference under a folded dome. The design of the dome was developed by engineers G. Krivin and A. Levenshtein. The dome consists of 24 metal folds with a console, each weighing 30 tons. The idea of ​​​​the design of interchangeable playpens belongs to Georgy Khromov (Honored Builder of Russia, laureate of the USSR State Prize). For construction (started in 1964, ended in 1971), a place was chosen at the intersection of Vernadsky Avenue and Lomonosovsky Avenue on the Lenin (Sparrow) Mountains on the site of a large wasteland dissected by a ravine.
The director of the circus is Edgard Zapashny. Artistic director- Askold Zapashny.
