Diva of Dance
Maya Plisetskaya
Maya Plisetskaya is in every sense an exceptional personality. Like almost no other dancer, the eternal prima
ballerina assoluta of the Bolshoi Theatre understood how to combine outstanding dance skills with dramatic expression.
There are also very few dancers who can look back on such a long and active career: even on her eightieth birthday in
November 2005 she personally gave a stage performance. A homage to her inimitable creative work, this DVD features
fascinating footage of her greatest successes as a ballerina together with an interview in which Maya Plisetskaya
describes her life as a dancer - which is simultaneously a whole chapter of Russian history, from Stalin to perestroika.
