Onegin is a ballet in three acts choreographed by John Cranko to music by Tchaikovsky and from Alexander Pushkin’s narrative poem, Eugene Onegin. Onegin was premiered by Stuttgart Ballet in 1965.


The State Opera was built to coincide with Friedrich II idealistic view that the arts, science and politics should be symbolised through great architecture. He commissioned his friend and architect, Georg Wenzeslaus von Knobelsdorff with the job and it was built by 1744. On August 18, 1843 the Opera house was destroyed by fire. A new opera building, with Carl Friedrich Langhans as architect, was inaugurated the following Autumn. In the 1920's the Opera house underwent a major reconstruction and reopened in April 1928. Many famous people have graced the stage such as Felix von Weingartner, Karl Muck, Richard Strauss, and Leo Blech.
