Background |
Full of Spanish flavor and vitality, Don
Quixote will close the 2004/2005 Season, which assembles many of the
ballet works choreographed by Petipa.
Based on the celebrated novel by Cervantes, Don Quixote is a romantic
comedy of two young lovers, Kitri and Basilio, whom Don Quixote, a
gentleman devoted to the idea of chivalry, meets during his journey.
The dances that appear on stage require a high level of technical
skill and incorporate abundant elements of Spanish folk dance that
Petipa is said to have loved all his life, making the work really
worth seeing.
