Petit / Clavigo [DVD]

Notes & Reviews:

Inspired by Goethe's early romantic play 'Clavigo', Roland Petit's ballet recounts the agonies of a weak-willed lover torn between the contradictory promptings of his heart and his evil spirit, which urges him to serve his own interests and forsake true love in favor of a life of debauchery. The superb and passionate dancing is set off by the structured stage design in grey, black or white panels and the beautiful late-18th-century-style costumes, creating a feast for the eyes.
