GISELLE, The Kirov Ballet (Mariinsky)- 1983

Adolphe Adam's romantic ballet Giselle was first seen in 1841 and was the finest of the ballets staged in Paris during the age of Romanticism. 
The role of Giselle has been compared to that of Hamlet.
She is a simple peasant girl, driven from joy to madness and death through an unhappy love. 
She is transformed into a ghost and ordered to help destroy the man who betrayed her, while still seeking to sustain him because of her undying love.
