Origins of Ballet: From royal courts to theatrical stages, explore how ballet was born during the Italian Renaissance, evolved in the French courts, and laid the foundation for a timeless art form. The Golden Age of Russian Ballet: Discover how choreographers like Marius Petipa and composers like Tchaikovsky transformed ballet into a spectacular cultural force, blending technical precision with emotional storytelling. Ballet in the 20th Century: Trace the radical innovations of figures like Diaghilev, Balanchine, and Cunningham who challenged tradition, introduced modernist elements, and redefined the language of ballet. Contemporary Choreography: Meet the groundbreaking choreographers of today who are infusing ballet with diverse influences, new narratives, and experimental movements to engage modern audiences.
