You don't always need words or pictures to tell a story. Ask any ballet fan and they will tell you that ballet tells thrilling tales simply through music and movements.
Ballet productions use the universal language of dance to tell their stories. They can be understood by anyone, anywhere, regardless of what language they speak. Ballet began in the royal courts of Italy in the 15th century. Since then the art form has spread around the world, developing its own techniques and vocabulary.
At the ballet, you can enjoy an evening of drama and storytelling where words don't matter at all.
