Ballerina Anastasia Volochkova admitted that she has problems with receiving a pension. So the star told RIA Novosti that in order to receive a pension, she is trying to prove that she was not a card ballet dancer, but a prima ballerina of the Bolshoi Theater.
Earlier, Volochkova explained that she was not given a work book at the Bolshoi Theater, and to solve this problem she even turned to a lawyer.
“A lawyer is now dealing with a pension. The point is not to go to court, but to prove that until 2003 I was a prima ballerina, I danced solo parts, and not in the corps de ballet,” the ballerina explained.
At the same time, ballet dancers are entitled to an early insurance old-age pension. To do this, performers of solo parts need at least 15 years of experience, and all other artists at least 20 years. Volochkova worked at the Bolshoi Theater from 1998 to 2003. They did not want to conclude the last contract with her, citing her physical form.
Previously, Rambler reported how Volochkova's ex-husband reacted to her intentions to sue him for three million dollars.
