At the International RUSSIA EXPO, a ballet concert titled "Ballet Stories: Russian Classics" took place, featuring the art production "Pushkin in Ballet and Opera." The concert was held in Pavilion No. 75 in the Cultural Projects Zone and was dedicated to the 225th anniversary of the birth of Russian poet Alexander Pushkin. Exposition guests enjoyed 14 ballet and four cultural performances, all related to poems and verses written by the great poet throughout his life.

The event featured ballerinas from Yegor Simachev's Ballet Workshop, as well as the ballet artist and choreographer himself. He emphasized the importance of preserving Alexander Pushkin's creative legacy and shared several interesting facts about the poet.

"Alexander Pushkin wanted to visit China very much. He was fascinated by the works of Confucius and dreamed of seeing the Great Wall of China. However, the authorities did not allow him to travel, and he never realized his dream. Nevertheless, in honor and respect for the great Russian poet, a monument to him was erected in the city of Shanghai," said Yegor Simachev.
