Based on Alexander Pushkin’s celebrated verse-novel Eugene Onegin, John Cranko’s sweeping ballet tells a story of love, pride, regret, and redemption. When the young and impressionable Tatiana meets the worldly aristocrat Onegin, she is instantly captivated—but he dismisses her as naïve and unworthy of his affection. What follows is a deeply moving drama of missed chances, a tragic duel, an elegant royal marriage, and a final reckoning. Majestic, emotionally rich, and beautifully staged, Onegin gives full force to Tatiana’s strength, dignity, and romantic agency.
