Renowned Russian ballet dancer Vladimir Shklyarov has tragically passed away at the age of 39 after falling from the fifth floor of a building.
The Mariinsky Theater, where Shklyarov was a principal dancer, announced his death on Saturday, November 16, calling it “a tremendous loss not only for the theater but for the entire world of ballet.” In a heartfelt statement, they extended condolences to his family, friends, and admirers, adding, “His remarkable talent and creativity earned him countless accolades, securing his place in the history of global ballet art.”
Although the theater’s initial announcement did not specify a cause, Anna Kasatkina, a theater representative, later revealed that Shklyarov had been on painkillers in preparation for a complex spinal surgery planned for November 18. He reportedly fell from a fifth-story window, with the preliminary cause of death being ruled an accident. An investigation is ongoing, according to the Russian news agency RIA Novosti.
Born in Saint Petersburg in 1985, Shklyarov graduated from the Academy of Russian Ballet and joined the Mariinsky Theater in 2003. By 2011, he was promoted to principal dancer, earning international acclaim for his performances in iconic productions like La Sylphide, Giselle, Swan Lake, Sleeping Beauty, and Romeo and Juliet.
Beyond the Mariinsky, Shklyarov graced stages worldwide, including the American Ballet Theater, the Royal Opera House, the Kennedy Center, and the Metropolitan Opera. The American Ballet Theater paid tribute to him, stating that his artistry left “an indelible mark on our stage and in our hearts.”
Shklyarov is survived by his wife, fellow ballerina Maria Shklyarova, and their two young children.

Tragedy - the loss of a beautiful dancer
"fall from the building"?!?!?!!?? give me a break.
Yeah it does seem like a suspicious death to me🧐, not to mention the fact we already had one of the guys from one direction fall from building the same year. Seems like a lot of popular people are falling from buildings lately.
世界が悲しんでいます。お悔やみ申し上げます。
Он навсегда останется жить в зазеркалье интернета.
Он будет жить вечно в сердцах людей которые любят прекрасное
Sim, ele está no céu com Deus e vossa Santa mãe Maria.
Soube usar muito bem o belo dom que Deus lhe deu. Bailarino Gigante❤ encheu nossas vidas de beleza .
Falling from building?! Another one! Why? What did he say about the war?
He and his wife were very much against
May I add a bit of perspective?
When we read a story like this, where the deceased has a face and name and history, we feel the pain felt by the family and pray that they find peace etc.
Very nice .
But please keep in mind the nameless and faceless Palestinian civilians..men, women and children who have been intentionally slaughtered in Gaza and elsewhere.
There is very much pain and bottomless grief suffered .
Have a thought for them.
Is 39 a retirement age for male dancers?
😥😥😥
Was he a critic of Putin? Does anyone know?
He was.
He criticized Russia’s actions in Ukraine.
Allora abbiamo capito tutti il motivo della sua caduta dal balcone.
Che tristezza, che peccato....é tutto cosí assurdo in questo mondo.
😮 He never said a word against Putin. But said he was a man of peace not interested in politics. Died by a tragic accident being in physical and spiritual pain.
He was pushed……murdered
After the Trump inauguration, lots of critics will be falling out of windows in the U.S.
So it’s true. British press are reporting that he denounced the war and spoke against Putin. So he gets the standard response. RIP.
Que triste que Rusia nunca cambie! Siempre mueren los que no piensan igual que su líder....😢😢
Era un bailarin maravilloso. Descanse en paz.
Мне хочется вас спросить:Имеете вы какое либо понятие о достоинстве ипорядочности чеолвека,что позволяете писать такое.Ах, "Британская пресса".В данном случае продажная пресса!
He never said a word against Putin! He only said he was a man of peace not interested in politics. What british press says is a grave lie😏🤨. He fell off a balcony by a tragic accident while smoking being a bit drunk at weekend....He felt terrible pain and was to be operated hospital on Monday but died on Saturday- Sunday night. That's it.
