In a dreamlike India where a magnificent elephant parades before the rajah’s lavish palace and a golden idol follows a fan dance, the ballet tells the story of the ill-fated love between the warrior Solor and Nikiya, a sacred temple dancer.

A jewel of the Paris Opera repertoire, La Bayadère dazzles with its virtuosic variations, impressive ensemble scenes and the purity of its “Kingdom of the Shades” act, in which 32 dancers in white tutus slowly trace their arabesques with an almost magical poetry.
