Johnny is back in beautiful Mother Russia this week to reprise his role as Kai in Evgeni Plushenko’s Snow King - 2, the follow-up to last year’s wildly successful Snow King.

Shows begin this Saturday, December 26, and run through Thursday, January 7, with double performances on many of the January dates. And even with such a grueling schedule, how thrilled is he to be back in Russia performing? I think the smile says it all in the airport pics below. ❤️

These exclusive photos from Elena are nicely huge, so please do click each one to enjoy happy, scruffy Johnny in glorious detail.

With Starbucks in hand, of course.
