Numerous choreographers have delved into Shakespeare to find dramatic material for their ballets, beginning with Jean-Georges Noverre, an ardent defender of the 鈥渁ction ballet鈥� and Marius Petipa, who was the first to use Mendelssohn鈥檚 stage music. George Balanchine, who also loved the score, would prove no exception. In 1962 he created his version of Shakespeare鈥檚 comedy for New York City Ballet. Faithful to the Bard鈥檚 vocabulary whilst adding a subtle touch of pantomime, he portrays a complex love story in two acts and six scenes. Theseus, Duke of Athens, and Hippolyta, queen of the Amazons, become caught up in a domestic quarrel between the king of the elves and the queen of the fairies which results in the intervention of the mischievous Puck and his magic potion along with a troupe of amateur actors. The denouement is celebrated in the form of a grand virtuoso entertainment. One of George Balanchine鈥檚 rare narrative ballets, A Midsummer Night鈥檚 Dream is entering the Paris Opera Ballet鈥檚 repertoire. The sets and costumes for this production have been designed by another magician of the stage, Christian Lacroix.
