The literary basis for the libretto of the ballet was two works at once - the drama of the ancient Indian poet Kalidasa called "Shakuntala" and the ballad of I.V. Goethe's "God and the Bayadere". On the basis of these immortal creations, the choreographer of the Russian imperial troupe Marius Petipa and playwright S.N. Khudekov managed to create a beautiful story about unhappy love, which has become one of the most famous in Russian ballet. And the Emperor's court composer Ludwig Minkus sounded her with enchanting music, thereby creating his best work.

 

The performance is set in India in ancient times. The main characters - the Indian dancer Nikiya and the brave warrior Solor are passionately in love with each other. They secretly meet in the temple and plan their escape - the only way they can be together. But lovers are not destined to achieve such a cherished happiness: many obstacles arise on their way. This is a great brahmin, obsessed with a thirst for revenge on Nikiya, who rejected him, a raja who is going to marry his daughter to Solor, and, of course, the rival of the bayadere herself, Gamzatti.
