Russia's St. Petersburg Eifman Ballet will give performances in Monaco, Israel, Slovenia, Kazakhstan and the United Kingdom before the end of the year, the creator and artistic director of the theater told Sputnik.

MOSCOW (Sputnik) — He added that in the first half of December, the dance company would present its "Up&Down" show for the first time in London. 

"In September, the theater will perform in Monaco and Ljubljana. In the beginning of October we will set off for Moscow… In the very same month our guest performance will be held in other Russian cities, as well as in Kazakhstan and Israel," Boris Eifman, who celebrates his 70th anniversary Friday, said.

Russia's St. Petersburg Eifman Ballet was created as a unique, psychological type of theater, its founder and artistic director, who celebrates his 70th anniversary on Friday, told Sputnik.

"During the almost 40 years of our collective's history, we have created a unique type of theater — a Russian psychological ballet theater. Its art is directed to the inner world of the modern individual, to the secrets of the human soul. For many years, we have been meticulously restoring the links of artistic and conceptual ties that have existed between theater and dance but which were lost in the 20th century," Boris Eifman said.

He explained that the repertoire of his ballet group is presented to the public on famous stages in America, Europe and Asia, adding that the St. Petersburg Eifman Ballet had no analogues in the world.

The ballet company was founded by Eifman in 1977 and was originally called the Leningrad Ballet Ensemble.
