Still, the show’s opening is built around LED special effects
A pause in the storyline lets you examine the gleaming “wings” in detail
But of course, the performance holds far more dynamism than stillness
After the inspiring light prologue, it’s time for fire!
Andrey Krasnousov takes the solo with flaming “comets” in his hands
Once the audience is sufficiently “warmed up,” you can ramp up the complexity
It’s time to move on to large‑scale acts involving several performers at once
The girls trace lines, waves, and more complex shapes in the air
There’s almost no wind, so the flames rise beautifully upward
This moving figure appears in almost every show by the troupe
Lydia Pospelova framed by the halo of flame
But seeing the fiery heart is a real treat
The finale is near, which means everyone needs to be on stage
Stunning optical effects are captured by hundreds of cameras
Yet it’s the overall picture that will stay in people’s memory for a long time
