Quite
soon the audience will see
Christmas show “Alice in Wonderland”. As
promises Ilya Averbukh, the project will be the most high-tech of all created
earlier new year’s ice show, it will be used all surfaces of the room,
including the ceiling. Especially for 7days.ru
famed trainer revealed details of the new ice show, premiere
which viewers will see on December 27.

—Ilya, in your new show will be involved
even the ceiling. What do we mean?

— “Alice in Wonderland” — this is the tale,
which requires that it was all a bit upside down. This is required by the genre. I don’t
I am a big fan of 3D and
the various light projections, while working with these effects many times. In
first and foremost, I believe that ice needs to be clean and the art that is
figure skating. But “Alice” made an exception. Still 3D-maping here
necessary to pass on the ice for the colorful world of this tale. There will be a lot
projections on different surfaces, including the ceiling. And yet, most importantly,
I always pay attention to their performances is the artists.

 —
Skaters? Or in the play will show itself, and other athletes?

— This play — ice-circus show. I invited
many circus performers. This Battisti, and acrobats, and the magnificent magician
Max pride, and the canadian star violet, which turns hoops… Very
I wanted to saturate the “Alice” circus as pure art
figure skating we showed recently — in the play “Romeo and Juliet”.

 But
stars of figure skating we see?

— Of course! The hallmark of those “trees”,
which I do, is a strong star cast. “Alice” is not
the exception to this rule. For the first time in the new year performance will take part
the current Olympic Champions Tatiana Volosozhar and Maxim Trankov, as well as
two-time Olympic champion Ekaterina Gordeeva. This trio is “the cherry on
the cake” gourmet ice skating. Maxim will play the role of Hatter and will
to make two Olympic Champions at the same time. Ekaterina Gordeeva
will play the role of the red Queen, and Tatiana Volosozhar — White. Real
decoration of the play will be the participation of Alexei Tikhonov and Maria Petrova. Ice
acrobats Vladimir Besedin and Oleksiy Polishchuk, who just love our
the audience will be surprised by its incredible
tricks.

 — And the role of Alice? Reveal
intrigue, who will play the main character?

Yes. For me it was crucial that this role
played child. At new year there are always lots of children, and for them very
it is important that the performance was attended by their peers. So her Alice I
choose from bright young odinochnits. Among the whole galaxy of talented girls for her
was Kate Kurakova. It is possible in a few years this name will know
the whole country because Kate performs the most complex elements of figure skating,
in particular, now makes a variety of triple jumps. I even saw her
pure played a quarter Salchow, which now can boast units
and then in training. Kate is at the age of curious Alice. I
it was interesting to discover the Russian audience a new star. Hopefully, the experience,
which it will receive in the process of working on this tale, be useful to her career, because, once
emphasize is a working athlete with a great future.

 It’s a shame we will not see
The Cheshire cat, sliding on the ice. As far as I know, this character
fully computerizing?

— That this version was the original. First on
the computer drew a smile, and our cat starts his famous
the smiles — 3D-projection. But I decided not to limit only computer
graphics. Now the role of the cat will perform a great athlete, famous around the world
figure skating — Vakho Murvanidze. He now lives in the USA, where he teaches
children. Wahoo will arrive to Moscow specially to take part in our
views. His cat skiing is perfect for this role. He
will be the Explorer Alice in Wonderland.
