The artistic creed of the theatre can be defined as enthusiastic creative quest and bold innovation.The Novaya Opera has the original repertoire based on the musical versions by Evgeny Kolobov: Glinka’s Ruslan and Lyudmila, "O Mozart! Mozart..." (based on the opera Mozart and Salieri by Rimsky-Korsakov and Mozart's Requiem), Tchaikovsky's Eugene Onegin, Verdi’s La Traviata, and includes such popular operatic works as : Rimsky-Korsakov's The Snow Maiden and The Tsar’s Bride, Rubinstein’s The Demon, Mozart’s Die Zauberflöte, Bellini’s Norma, Donizetti’s L’Elisir d’Amore, Bizet’s Les Pêcheurs de Perles, Verdi’s Nabucco and Rigoletto, Mascagni's Cavalleria Rusticana, Leoncavallo's I Pagliacci, Wagner’s Lohengrin. The Novaya Opera was the first in Russia to stage Donizetti's Maria Stuarda, Catalani’s La Wally, Verdi’s I Due Foscari, Mussorgsky’s Boris Godunov (in the first composer’s adaptation), Thomas’ Hamlet. The new theatrical genre was created: it is the original artistic image of famous composers and musicians (“Maria Callas”, “Viva Verdi!”, “Vincenzo Bellini”,”Richard Wagner”, “Rossini”, “Bravissimo!”).

ABRA ENSEMBLE Hall I + Abra Ensemble (Performance Space Exhibition) ABRA Ensemble's works aspire to undermine existing power structures as they express themselves in the voice, language patterns and ways of speech. They seek rather communal, feminist strategies of composition, listening and creative-coexistence. Exposing the emergence of the music itself, ABRA Ensemble bridges the existing limits between contemporary virtuoso vocal art and the performative, transformative encounter with an audience. In the five years since its founding in 2013, the ensemble has performed at a diverse range of venues in Israel and Europe, released a debut album and gained considerable recognition both in the new-music and contemporary performance scene. YARON ABULAFIA Jury Member 2019 / PQ Ambassador Yaron Abulafia has designed over 200 theatre and dance performances, installations, concerts and television shows internationally. He has designed for the Netherlands Dans Theater, the English National Ballet, Rambert Dance Company, Staatsballett Berlin, Danza Contemporanea de Cuba and the Hungarian State Theatre of Cluj in Romania – to mention but a few.
