On April 19, the annual Golden Mask festival ended. The result of the festival was the solemn ceremony of awarding the Russian National Theater Prize. On the stage of the Musical Theater named after. K. S. Stanislavsky and Vl. I. Nemirovich-Danchenko was announced with results that were partly shocking, partly predictable and not foreseen except by people not connected in any way with the theatrical world. Let us briefly describe the results of the 2017 Golden Mask.

“In opera, the Perm Opera and Ballet Theater received the most awards. P. I. Tchaikovsky and the Moscow Bolshoi Theater"

And if a large number of awards in the Bolshoi collection is almost a tradition of any award, then the Perm theater became a leader relatively recently. So several awards went to the Urals at once. The scandalous opera La Traviata, which could not be brought to Moscow due to acoustic issues (as part of the competition, all competitors from different cities of Russia bring their productions to Moscow stages) and which the jury ultimately evaluated within the walls of their native theater, brought well-deserved results. Thanks to this production, Teodor Currentzis, an experimental conductor, became the winner in the opera/conductor category, and the performer of the main role of Violetta Valerie, Nadezhda Pavlova, won in the opera/female role category. Robert Wilson was recognized as the best work of a lighting designer in musical theater for the Perm production of La Traviata.

The second opera that deservedly received the title of best and won in the opera/play category was “Rodelinda” - a joint production of two major theaters: the Bolshoi Theater and the English National Opera, the premiere of the Bolshoi in 2015. Baroque music under the direction of the sensitive and insightful conductor Christopher Moulds was able not only to charm the audience of the Bolshoi Theater, but also to leave the competition jury not indifferent. For the production of this opera, Richard Jones received the award in the opera/director category.

Other opera premieres of the past year did not go without awards: Liparit Avetisyan became the best in the opera/actor category for the role of Chevalier des Grieux in the opera “Manon” at the Musical Theater. K. S. Stanislavsky and Vl. I. Nemirovich-Danchenko, Etel Ioshpa became the winner in the category of work of an artist in musical theater for the opera “Salome”, included in the repertoire of the Moscow “New Opera”.

“Another Ural city shone in the field of ballet - Yekaterinburg, paired with St. Petersburg”

The best ballet was the Yekaterinburg ballet “Romeo and Juliet” by Vyacheslav Samodurov, which reimagined the Shakespearean drama. Igor Bulytsyn was awarded the title of best male dancer for the role of Mercutio in this production. The works of V. Samodurov were twice appreciated at the festival: for his direction of the second ballet “Ondine”, set to the difficult music of Hans Werner Henze to perceive and perform, the prize in the ballet/conductor category went to Pavel Klinichev (the only nominee in this category, the intrigue remained only in the name of the ballet for which the conductor received the award).

MOSCOW, April 19 – RIA Novosti. About 50 awards were presented at the Golden Mask theater award ceremony, which took place on Wednesday at the Stanislavsky and Nemirovich-Danchenko Musical Theater in Moscow.

The jury also awarded "Magadan/Cabaret" of the theater "Near Stanislavsky's House" as the best dramatic performance of a small form.

Kozlovsky was recognized as the best dramatic actor for the role of Hamlet at the Maly Drama Theater of St. Petersburg.

“I would like to take the opportunity to thank my dear people. First of all, this is my teacher, director of the Maly Drama Theater Lev Dodin, who has some power, strength, inner drama not to stage Hamlet in a comfortable form, but to ask questions in it, which today one cannot help but ask... I want to say thank you to the family, parents and mother, who often asked me where her mask was, and now she has it,” Kozlovsky said at the award ceremony.

Opera

“I am a happy person because I am a musician, and I strive to be the best both musician and person... The purpose of creativity is to bring happiness to people,” Currentzis said at the award ceremony.
