On 1 and 6 June the Mariinsky Theatre soloist will be performing the role of Solor in the ballet La Bayadère at the Metropolitan Opera in New York.
The participation of Mariinsky Theatre stars in ABT’s spring season is becoming a tradition – last year there were debuts at the renowned Metropolitan Opera by guest artists Viktoria Tereshkina and Vladimir Shklyarov. This year Kimin Kim will be appearing with American Ballet Theatre in Natalia Makarova’s production of La Bayadère. He will be partnered by Polina Semionova as Nikia and Gillian Murphy as Gamzatti.
