Oplev en ægte balletklassiker med en helt igennem spektakulær scenografi og eventyrlige dansetrin 

Balletten La Bayadère byder ikke blot på et udstyrsstykke uden lige, det er også en ballet, hvor dansen er krydret med Indiens spiritualisme og eksotisme - og ikke at forglemme en over fire meter høj elefant!

En bajadere er en indisk tempeldanserinde, der ved særlige lejligheder underholder med sang og dans. I La Bayadère hedder hun Nikija, og hun er centrum i et skæbnesvangert jalousidrama.

Højdepunktet i balletten La Bayadère er den berømte, magiske tredje akt, Skyggernes rige, hvor en uendelig strøm af danserinder i hvide tutuer kommer ud af mørket og bevæger sig over scenen, næsten som et buddhistisk mantra. En ren symfonisk akt, der koreografisk er helt oppe på højde med de hvide svaners dans i Svanesøen.

Da Marius Petipa præsenterede den russiske ballet i 1877, var handlingen henlagt til Indiens fjerne fortid, men i denne version er den flyttet frem til slutningen af det 19. århundrede, hvor landet var en engelsk koloni under dronning Victoria. Som i de fleste romantiske balletter har den virkelige verden et modstykke i en tillokkende anden verden – i dette tilfælde den indiske overklasse over for skyggeriget, hvor de æteriske væsener, de døde bajaderer, hersker.

Experience a true ballet classic with richly spectacular set design and exotic choreography

La Bayadère is much more than a grand visual masterpiece. It is also a ballet whose choreography is infused with the spirituality and exoticism of India – not to mention an elephant measuring over four metres!’

A bayadère is an Indian temple dancer who entertains with singing and dancing for special occasions. In La Bayadère, the temple dancer’s name is Nikiya, and she is at the centre of a fateful love triangle.

The high point of La Bayadère is the celebrated and magical third act, The Kingdom of the Shades, where an endless stream of dancers garbed in cloud-white tutus emerge from the darkness and float in unison across the stage, almost like a Buddhist mantra. A purely symphonic act with choreography as exceptional as the Dance of the Cygnets in Tchaikovsky’s Swan Lake.

When Marius Petipa presented the Russian ballet in 1877, the action was set in ancient legendary India, but this version takes place at the end of the nineteenth century, when India was a British colony under Queen Victoria. As in most Romantic ballets, the real world has a counterpart in an alluring parallel universe – here, the upper-class world of the British Raj juxtaposed against the otherworldly realm of the ethereal bayadère.
