Ballet in Stuttgart has a rich history whose origins go back to the 17th-century court of W��rttemberg. It had its first golden age in the 18th century, when the great dance reformer Jean-Georges Noverre exerted his influence here from 1759 to 1766. In 1961, choreographer John Cranko (1927-1973) was appointed ballet director, and a new era in the history of the Stuttgart Ballet began. With three legendary new works he renewed the genre of the full-length narrative ballet: Romeo and Juliet, Onegin and The Taming of the Shrew. Up to the present day, dancers worldwide list a leading role in one of these ballets among their dream roles.
