MA BAYADÈRE

Jean-Christophe Maillot

A large-scale ballet, Ma Bayadère marks Jean-Christophe Maillot's return to narrative that he loves so much, "made of emotions that reflect us with moves which bring us together". Putting an academic vocabulary in harmony with a narrative that makes sense today... the credo of the Choreographer-Director of Les Ballets de Monte-Carlo has not changed over the years. More than ever in love with dance on points, aiming for an excellence beyond what is reasonable, Jean-Christophe takes that on to offer us his reinterpretation of La Bayadère, a monument of the classical Repertoire with which he never ceases his dialogue.
