La Bayadère | Ludwig Minkus © Paris Opera - Bel Air Media - 2026 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. Duration: 2hr05 without intermission Choreography: Rudolf Nureyev, after Marius Petipa Music: Ludwig Minkus Adaptation, arrangement: John Lanchberry Conductor: Koen Kessels Cinema Director: Julien Condemine Cast: (subject to change) Dorothée Gilbert (Nikiya), Hugo Marchand (Solor), Roxane Stojanov (Gamzatti), Paris opera Premièr
