BRIEF INTRODUCTION

The three-act ballet Lady of the Camellias made its premiere in 1978. Based on Alexandre Dumas Fils' world famous novel of the same title, it was choreographed by John Neumeier, the Artistic Director of The Hamburg Ballet. It accords with everyone's wishes that this famous masterpiece could be carried onto the stage in the form of ballet. The accompanying music for the ballet is from Chopin, and it was at that time produced for Marcia Haydee, who is not only the artistic director of the Stuttgart Ballet but also one of the greatest ballerinas of the 20th century. The ballet is the testimony for the two partners' successful cooperation.


Being adapted from literary masterpieces has always been the tradition of ballet; meanwhile, it has also become a challenge to ballet. Literature not only offers ballet rich nutrition but also makes ballet's standing point more difficult to settle, thus those famous dramatic ballets that could become a history must come from masters, and John Neumeier, the choreographer of Lady of the Camellias, is the best testimony.


Lady of the Camellias vividly portrays the characters' psychological world and skillfully depicts the dramatic plot, and it could be named the classic of dramatic ballet. The excellent arrangement makes full use of dance and stagecraft, which gives spectators a satisfied enjoyment. In Act I, Manon Lescaut, another famous courtesan, appeared on the stage and projected the tragic destiny of courtesans; the dance in this scenario not only presents the excellent choreography but also vividly and in an unexpected way depicts the characters' psychological struggle and subtle change, and gives spectators a double shock on vision and heart.
