Eugene Onegin
Performed at the Opera de Paris"
Approximate running time: 2hrs 25min plus one intermission

Eugene Onegin is an opera based on the novel in verse by Aleksandr Pushkin. It is a classic of Russian literature and its eponymous protagonist served as the model for a number of Russian literary heroes. The story concerns Eugene Onegin, a selfish hero who lives to regret his blasé rejection of a young woman's (Tatiana's) love and his careless incitement of a fatal duel with Lensky, his best friend.

"The Opera de Paris opens its season with a world-class guest: the Bolshoi from Moscow, with one of Tchaikovsky's most popular works."  
-- La Croix, September 2008

"Dimitri Tcherniakov, who is known for his innovative flair, creates in this production an astounding way of preserving classical tradition and defying conventions at the same time."  
-- Journal de Dimanche, September 2008
