In 1877, at the Moscow Bolshoi theatre for the first time staged a dance performance, which is now known to everyone. The ballet «Swan lake» was born. Since then, the history of world choreography is associated with a magical "medieval" fairy tale about an enchanted girl, a Prince in love and an evil wizard.
