Two Carpets - schedule, program & buy tickets

An epic tale of love, lost in war and rediscovered in Vienna. In this production, Vienna is not merely the setting, but the true protagonist.

“One of the best new narrative ballets I’ve ever seen” — Graham Watts, Chair of the Critics’ Circle UK, writer for The Spectator.

The Shirvan carpet, now housed in the Louvre, forms the basis of the plot. Hidden within its patterns is the story of a human destiny—a key to memory that can bring love back.

A lively, captivating show that promises to be an unforgettable experience for the whole family. On stage: 40 ballet dancers and 6 young students from the Astana Choreography Academy. Including the production team and technical staff, more than 100 people are involved in the project. 200 unique costumes, set design, and visual effects transport the audience from an oriental bazaar to turn-of-the-century Vienna.

The role of Leyla is danced by Tatiana Ten—prima ballerina and former soloist with the Ballet du Capitole in Toulouse (France), who trained at La Scala in Milan. The role of Samir is danced by Sundet Sultanov—winner of the Benois de la Danse international competition. The role of Margot is danced by Natalia Fernandes Menes—prima ballerina and graduate of the Joffrey Ballet School in New York.
