Stuttgart Ballet
Ballet in Stuttgart has a rich history whose origins go back to the 17th-century court of Württemberg. It had its first golden age in the 18th century, when the great dance reformer Jean-Georges Noverre exerted his influence here from 1759 to 1766.


In 1961, choreographer John Cranko (1927-1973) was appointed ballet director, and a new era in the history of the Stuttgart Ballet began. With three legendary new works he renewed the genre of the full-length narrative ballet: Romeo and Juliet (1959, new version 1962), Onegin (1965, new version 1967) and The Taming of the Shrew (1969). Up to the present day, dancers worldwide list a leading role in one of these ballets amongst their dream roles. During the Stuttgart Ballet's first tour to the United States in 1969 American critics coined the term "Stuttgart ballet miracle".


The Stuttgart Ballet has remained at the forefront of international dance for more than 40 years now. From 1976 to 1996 Márcia Haydée directed the company. Canadian born Reid Anderson, formerly a Cranko soloist and director of the National Ballet of Canada from 1989 to 1996, is continuing the company’s success in the role of artistic director since 1996 with programming which provides creative opportunities for younger choreographers whilst cultivating the Cranko heritage. The breathtaking level of technical skill and the stylistically broad repertoire of the Stuttgart Ballet not only attracts audiences, but also dance talent from all over the world: more than 25 nationalities are represented amongst the apprentices, corps dancers, soloists and principal dancers.
