In May 2025, a video spread in social networks with a fragment of the dancer's performance. We checked whether the allegations were true that the ballerina participated in the performances with the parameters unusual for this art.
Video with dancing to the music of the Tchaikovsky ballerina with magnificent forms widely spread in Facebookwhere one of Such posts at the time of writing this analysis Sicked 766,000 views, as well as in Instagram. Some publications specify that the dancer is called Sarah Saviol and this is a fragment from the ballet “Sleeping Beauty”. “The sleeping beauty, apparently, also ate in a dream,” the author of one of the posts joked.
Pyotr Tchaikovsky’s ballet “Sleeping Beauty” was first delivered by choreographer Marius Petip in the Mariinsky Theater in 1890. It consisted of four actions (prologue and three acts), and more than a hundred performers were occupied in it. Nine years later, the choreographer Alexander Gorsky transferred the performance of Petipa to the stage of the Bolshoi Theater. Since then, the production has repeatedly been edited: now in Bolshoi Theater It is in the 1973 editorial office, staged by Yuri Grigorovich, and in Mariinsky - as amended by Konstantin Sergeyev, 1952. On the basis of the version of Petip their editorial office Rudolf Nureyev for the Paris Opera also created the Sleeping Beauty. However, there are completely original versions of this ballet - for example, setting Mats Eka And Matthew Born.
The artistic director of the Finnish National Ballet Javier Torres, like many others, set up "Sleeping beauty»Based on the choreography of Petipa. At the same time, he tried to make a family performance that is ideal for the first acquaintance of children with the ballet, which required significant abbreviations and changes. So, if Petip’s christening Princess Aurora come with their gifts six fairies (a fairy of sincerity, a fairy of blooming ears, a fairy, scattering bread crumbs, a fairy - a chirping canary, a fairy of ardent passions and a fairy of lilac), then Torres only three of them: a fairy of a siren’s love, a fairy of the broth and a fairy of joy and beauty.
It is the fragment of the party of grace that is captured in the hungering video. In this case, it really performs it Sarah Saviola. She danced grace from 2008 to 2018, but in parallel with her, other dancers played this role.
In the 2024/2025 season, the grace of Greats dancing Hatige Clagla Ertyurk, Edita Rausherov and NAO Harada danced. On the stage, they all look chubby, but they have a completely common physique for ballerinas. A cute chubby fairy is the finder's find. Dancers to play this role have to wear a special suit that imitates fullness.
In the blog of the Finnish dancer, Jeriko Fox, has survived fast With the impressions of this production, which he looked in October 2013 (he fell on another composition, without Sarah Saviola). He writes: “The very special driving force was discovered in the role of the Grace, the Keeper of Joy, performed by Johannennen. The so -called "fat" grace costume turned out to be a really great solution. The light steps of Noutinen and her magnificent figure created a completely new, exciting illusion, and it was wonderful to see on the stage a body that differs from the ballet norm, even created with the help of a costume. ” And on the page of the Finnish national opera on Facebook we found and comment Sarah Saviola about this role. “Grace, or Fairy of Joy, is a character created by Havier Torres, who for me personally is a kind of reproached one -sided standards of appearance, sometimes reigning in the ballet world. The movement, executed by a complete, rounded body, can be as aesthetic if it is behind skill, like the movement of a thin dancer. True, the very image of Grace is comic in nature: it is so crowded with joy, happiness and love that it is as if intoxicated by the beauty of life. Therefore, at least for me as a performer, the comicism of this character is in no way connected with her appearance, ”says the ballerina.
Thus, in the hungering video, the ballerina is captured in a “thick” suit, and not the Plus-Sise dancer.
