Creative association MAD is a team of international level that completely takes over the management of the project from the very beginning to the moment of its implementation on the stage. For each project, we create a special working group of professionals depending on the needs and scope of the project that calculate budget, conduct casting of artists, select the site that is suitable for the project etc. This can be either renting any sites or collaborating with public or private theaters, museums, and so on. Our team is ready for realization of both our own and special customized projects such as opening major exhibitions, forums, sports, private events, or projects dedicated to any significant events etc.
GOAL
To provide talented representatives of creative specialties with opportunities to implement original ideas. To develop Russian ballet art. To expand genre boundaries and enrich the repertoire policy of state theatres. To create a proper image of Russia as a modern ballet space.
UNIQUENESS

There are open locations where drama performances can be presented without being a part of any particular theater’s repertoire.
