Description
[Machine Translation] A Midsummer Night's Dream itself is well known in ballet adaptations by Balanchine and Ashton. Both are fantastical works, but Maillot depicts a bewitching, sensual, and instinctive world of fairies and humans. Titania is danced by Maillot's muse, Bernice Kopieters. Dressed in sexy costumes, even King Auberon follows her. The story is closer to the original, with three intertwined worlds: the fairy world, the lovers, and the artisans who perform before the king. The three main characters, the lovers in their simple gray tights, the fairies with their wicked sense of humor, and the craftsmen with their kittehs, are all three different from each other. The music for the lovers is Mendelssohn, a common ballet repertoire piece, but the fairies and craftsmen's parts have new music to further accentuate the world view. Of course, the quality of the dancers is also very high. While based on classical ballet techniques, the dancers have a greater degree of freedom, flexibility of body and expressive power. In addition, Mayo's simple yet innovative stage sets, costumes, and other aspects of his direction are also noteworthy. This is a very exciting production, especially for fans of contemporary ballet.

Description in Japanese
モナコ公国モンテカルロ・バレエ団 「真夏の夜の夢 Le Songe」 / バレエ
「真夏の夜の夢」自体は、バランシンやアシュトンがバレエ化したものがよく知られている。どちらもファンタジックな作品だが、マイヨーが描くのは妖しく官能的・本能的な妖精と人間たちの世界。タイターニアを踊るのは、マイヨーのミューズであるベルニス・コピエテルス。セクシーな衣装に身を包み、オーベロン王でさえも従える。物語はより原作に近く、この妖精界と恋人たち、王の前で芝居する職人たちの3つが絡み合う。主軸となる恋人たちはグレーのシンプルなタイツ、妖精たちはケレン味たっぷり、そして職人たちはキテレツと三者三様。音楽も、恋人たちはバレエで一般的なメンデルスゾーンだが、妖精たちと職人たちのパートは、新たな楽曲をつけることで、さらに世界観を際立たせている。もちろん、ダンサーたちの質も非常に高い。クラシックバレエの技術をベースにしながら、より自由度の高い、柔軟な身体能力と表現力を併せ持っている。さらに、シンプルでありながら斬新な舞台装置、衣装等マイヨーの演出にも注目したい。特にコンテンポラリーのファンには非常に刺激的な作品であろう。
