Ivan Putrov Biography

Ivan Putrov is one of the most popular and richest Ballet Dancer who was born on March 8, 1980 in Kiev, Kiev, Soviet Union. Ivan Putrov (born 8 March 1980) is a Ukrainian-born ballet dancer and producer. He trained at The Kyiv State Choreographic Institute and at The Royal Ballet School. Upon graduation Sir Anthony Dowell invited him to join the Royal Ballet, which he did in September 1998. He has continued to dance with companies around the world, to organize dance events and to teach.

The following year Putrov danced in Coppélia, Mayerling, Swan Lake and Scènes de ballet. His debut as Le Spectre de la Rose at the Royal Opera House was in May 2004 (which he also portrayed, as Nijinsky, in the 2005 film Riot at the Rite). In Sam Taylor-Wood’s 2004 film installation “Strings”, he danced suspended by a harness above four musicians playing the slow movement from Tchaikovsky’s Second String Quartet, filmed in the Crush Bar of the Royal Opera House.

He created the role of Karl in The Most Incredible Thing at Sadler’s Wells Theatre in 2011, and was also credited in the early development of the work. In 2012 Putrov choreographed his first major creation for the stage entitled Ithaca, using La Péri by Paul Dukas.

Since leaving the Royal Ballet, Putrov has planned the ‘Men in Motion’ ballet programmes, which were originally mounted in London and have since toured to Warsaw, Moscow, Łodz and Milan. In January 2014 he closed an edition of the BBC2 current affairs programme Newsnight by dancing a solo to a song by Johnny Cash from Affi by Marco Goecke. In 2019 Putrov produced a programme ‘Against the Stream’ designed as “a tribute to remarkable choreographers who changed the ecology of dance beyond recognition”; he also danced in the Ashton and Macmillan performed.

In 2004-2005 he danced in Cinderella, La Fille mal gardée (Colas), Rhapsody, Symphonic Variations and Symphony in C. In March 2005 he came on stage from the audience to dance the solos in Rhapsody after Carlos Acosta suffered a twisted ankle. In 2006 Putrov himself suffered an injury in an onstage fall, which led to a lengthy leave from dancing. He returned to the stage without apparent lasting effects, and received notices for roles such as Prince Siegfried in Swan Lake and Lensky in John Cranko’s Onegin, for which The Guardian praised his “captivating blitheness.” He danced Beliaev alongside Alexandra Ansanelli’s Natalia Petrovna in A Month in the Country in her final appearances before retirement, in New York and Havana, and gave his own last performance with the Royal Ballet in May 2010 as the Prince in Ashton’s Cinderella.
