the Premiere of experimental ballet "the Bolt" was held in 1931 year at the Leningrad theatre of Opera and ballet. Dmitri Shostakovich wrote the music, the choreographer was performed by Fyodor Lopukhov, costumes sang Tatiana Bruni@

Despite current for the time the plot of the ballet (or attempt of a group of hooligans to sabotage production, shooting in one of the vehicles bolt), the responses from the critics were sharply negative. The action of the ballet revolved more around the negative characters of those years (bullies, drunkards, bureaucrats, the bourgeoisie), which statement eventually found anti-Soviet and immediately removed from the repertoire of the theatre. Critics have accused the ballet too grotesque, choreography Lopukhov was considered vulgar and acrobatical, the music of Shostakovich - exposed to Western influence. The creators were accused of tasting drunken revelry. The press also insulted the dance of the red army at Vienna chairs instead of horses - they were considered a mockery of the entire red Army.
