Set in the Mediterranean Sea, the epic classic ballet "Pirates" depicts the love and adventures of Conrad, the leader of a band of pirates, and Medora, a beautiful woman. The Anna-Marie Holmes version of this famous ballet, which is in the repertoire of the Tokyo Ballet, is characterized by its exciting, sweaty drama and by the fact that the mime (acting) is kept to a minimum and the male dancers, in particular, are given ample opportunities to show off their impressive dancing skills. The current Tokyo Ballet is entering its golden age, with dancers who are capable of performing the difficult techniques required for "Pirates" blossoming their talents one after another. The lead roles, which change from day to day, as well as the united group dances that are synonymous with the Tokyo Ballet, are all filled with brilliance and power that embody the charm of their roles, and their breathtaking dances invite the audience into a world full of beauty. The stage is decorated with gorgeous equipment and costumes made at the world-class workshop of La Scala in Milan. The stage is like a work of art in its perfection, creating an ocean on a breathtaking scale.
