With The Taming of the Shrew, Jean-Christophe Maillot has found himself in an unprecedented position of bringing to Les Ballets de Monte-Carlo a production made for dancers other than his own. This adaptation of the play, born in 2014 of a meeting of minds with the Bolshoi Ballet, was his very first creation for another company since his arrival in Monaco 25 years ago. It proved a runaway success in Moscow as well as on foreign tours. Les Ballets de Monte-Carlo’s dancers perfectly embodied Shakespeare’s characters of this ballet, rewarded with three Golden Masks!
