The London Coliseum is to host the UK premiere of Lazgi – Dance of Soul and Love, featuring the National Ballet of Uzbekistan, for one night only on Saturday September 14. Full information can be found here.

Lazgi is a timeless tale of love and the eternal dance of the soul, set against the backdrop of Central Asia’s legendary Silk Road. The plot begins millennia ago, during the great era of caravans travelling on the Silk Road. In the scorching desert, under the songs of shamans, Love awakens and begins its eternal dance with the immortal Soul. This fantastic journey from the past to the future is the story of the Soul, embodying centuries-old traditions and folk temperament, and Love, following it through all eras. The story of the people, the memory of ancestors, and the voices of spirits – each act of the ballet strengthens the connection between times, culminating in the inseparable union of Soul and Love.

From ancient traditions to modern innovation, this production seamlessly weaves together elements of light, music, and folk artistry, creating an immersive experience for audiences of all ages.

       

Crafted by the renowned German choreographer Raoul Raimondo Rebeck, this extraordinary production pays homage to the ancient folk dance Lazgi, recently inscribed by UNESCO as a significant part of humanity’s intangible cultural heritage.

Lazgi is more than just a dance; it’s a captivating journey through time, tracing the rich history of Khorezm dance and its profound symbolism of love and wisdom.
