Boris Eifman’s I, Don Quixote is an entirely new interpretation of this classical choreographic masterpiece of the past. While retaining the musical score of the ballet, Boris Eifman offers a distinctively original personal take on the dramatic story going far beyond the framework of archaic artistic forms.

Eifman’s protagonist lives in the realm of his own fantasies, but creates there a world of beauty, harmony, joyfulness and love. This world of illusion is vivid and luminous, but coming into collision with the bitter and obscure reality it may turn into tragedy.
