Loosely based on the eponymous poem by Lord Byron, Le Corsaire keeps its romantic elevation, freedom-loving spirit and strong passion. A plot that came from the real life of sea robbers - corsairs and has a place for love, treachery, ridiculous tricks of a greedy merchant, as well as Le jardin animé romantic scenes always go down well with the public.

This pearl of classical ballet repertoire graces the stages of all well-known theatres in the world, since it allows artists to make a brilliant display of both ballet technique and dramatic talent in all the parts.
