John Cranko’s Onegin at the Bolshoi Theatre
Nina Kaptsova as Tatiana and Ruslan Skvortsov as Onegin
Act I. Tatiana’s Dream
“Another!… No, no one on this earth Is there to whom I'd give my heart! That is ordained by highest fate… That is heaven's will - that I am yours...”
Act III: Reality: Tatiana Rejects Onegin
“...and so I married. I beseech you, go”
“...I beseech you, go; I know your heart: it has a feeling for honour, a straightforward pride. I love you (what's the use to hide behind deceit or double-dealing?) but I've become another's wife - and I'll be true to him, for life.“ — “Eugene Onegin” by Alexander Pushkin
