Theater Basel to Present GISELLE
Giselle gilt als der Inbegriff des romantischen Balletts. Es wurde 1841 in Paris uraufgeführt und erzählt die Geschichte eines Bauernmädchens, das sich in einen Herzog verliebt. Pontus Lidberg transportiert die Geschichte ins Heute. Seine Giselle ist eine Migrantin, die der reiche Albrecht am Ende fallen lässt. Sie erscheint ihm daraufhin im Traum.

BWW Review: ABT's Staging of GISELLE Offers Superb Dancing but Misses the Mark During the Iconic Mad Scene
Kevin McKenzie, the Artistic Director of American Ballet Theater since 1991, has created an admirably faithful staging of the company's 1987 production of Giselle to the music of Adolf Adam. A veteran himself of the leading role of Albrecht, McKenzie has kept the beloved classic alive for today's audiences with all of the requisite charm and dance mime in Act ! and plenty of eerily dramatic tension in Act II.

BWW Review: AMERICAN BALLET THEATRE Is as Versatile as Ever in a Mixed Bill
According to a 1998 review of ABT by Jack Anderson in The New York Times, publicists for the company in the early days used to call the troupe 'a museum of the dance.' Anderson commented that this is a good phrase to describe the company 'provided one realizes that great museums can encourage new art as well as preserve old'. I heartily concur. As I've mentioned before, I always remind my ballet students that we can hang a Rembrandt or a Picasso on a museum wall for posterity, but each generation of dancers must be capable performing both the old and the new if we are to keep our history alive. Fortunately, true to ABT's founding mission 'to develop a repertoire of the best ballets from the past and to encourage the creation of new works by gifted young choreographers,' this national treasure continues to present accurate historical reconstructions as well as new works by today's choreographers.
