The 20th century became the golden age of choreography. Ballets were staged by Michel Fokine, George Balanchine, Leonid Lavrovsky and others. The famous ballets were usually romantic or dramatic.
However, as practice shows, the audience wants first of all classics. The most popular ballets of the Bolshoi Theatre both in Russia and abroad are the classic ones: The Nutcracker, Swan Lake, and Sleeping Beauty.
