What is "romantic ballet"?
Romantic ballet is a style of ballet that emerged in the 19th century, known for its emphasis on emotion, storytelling, and dreamy, fantastical themes. It is characterized by its graceful and flowing movements, with dancers often performing en pointe, or on the tips of their toes, to create a light, ethereal appearance. Romantic ballet frequently features stories about supernatural beings, such as fairies or spirits, and often includes dramatic, expressive choreography. The style is noted for its use of flowing costumes and sets that enhance the magical and otherworldly atmosphere of the performances.
