Giselle. Classical ballet with video effects

The mystical legend of the dead brides, retold by the 19th century German poet Heinrich Heine, has become a masterpiece of world ballet art, thanks to the soulful music written by A. Adam and the choreographic genius of M. Petipa, who created the reference version of the ballet “Giselle.”

The drama and emotionality, lyricism and musicality of the performance, surrounded by an aura of mystery, make the viewer empathize with the characters from the first notes to the last chord.

“Dressed in wedding dresses, crowned with flowers... the irresistibly beautiful Wilis dance in the light of the moon, they dance the more passionately and quickly the more they feel that the hour given to them for dancing is running out, and they must again descend into their ice-cold, graves..." (G. Heine).

In the performance, along with classical scenery and costumes, multimedia scenery is used in the form of projections on the walls of the theater. This design enhances the emotionality and drama of the plot, allowing the viewer, being in the epicenter of what is happening, to receive new aesthetic sensations.

The young Count Albert is in love with the village girl Giselle. Afraid of scaring her off with his title, he meets with her, dressing up as a peasant youth, while forgetting that he has a fiancée, Bathilda, who is of the same class as him. Giselle reciprocates his feelings. Hans, a local forester, also in love with Giselle, arranges for the count to be exposed in the presence of Giselle and Bathilda. Giselle, unable to bear the deception, loses her mind and dies. Wilis, the ghosts of brides who died before the wedding, strive to overtake lost travelers in the cemetery. They come across Hans, who came to Giselle’s grave, tormented by remorse. The Wilis spin him around in a ghostly dance, and he falls to the ground without breathing. The same fate awaits the inconsolable Albert, but the shadow of Giselle that appears, preserving selfless love, protects and saves Albert from the wrath of the Wilis..
