- Abstract
This research aims to elevate dancers’ perspectives of the operational dynamics within a major U.S. ballet company to better understand their working relationship to the Dual Executive Leadership (DEL) team and their role as critical contributors to the development of an arts organization and broader arts policy. Examining the case of Miami City Ballet, this study gathers feedback from dancers on how they interact with the company’s DEL team, comprised of the Artistic and Executive Directors, and how these interactions impact their work. The central questions ask how ballet dancers perceive dynamics of communication, trust, value, and respect in their working relationship with company leadership. Using narrative inquiry as methodology, dancers were asked to share their stories of interactions with the DEL team through a survey and interviews. Twelve (12) dancers completed the survey, and of those, five (5) agreed to participate in a follow-up semi-structured interview. Findings suggest opportunities for improving communication practices to foster more connection between dancers and leadership, for developing a work culture that invites feedback and is based on mutual trust, and for reconsidering how dancers are valued as key contributors to decision-making spaces. These findings add an important new perspective to research on leadership and organizational studies in ballet and the arts more broadly.

The purpose of the article is to reveal the peculiarities of the formation and the personal composition of the Lviv Opera Theatre ballet company in the late 30s – early 40s of the 20th century. Methodology. Analytical, historical-chronological, biographical approaches were used to reveal the topic, which made it possible to conduct scientific and objective research. Scientific novelty. For the first time, a special study regarding the creative work of the ballet company of the Lviv Opera and Ballet Theatre in the late 30s – early 40s of the 20th century was carried out; the names of some performers were introduced into ballet studies. Conclusions. The rise of professional performing and ballet mastery on the stage of the Lviv Opera was facilitated by the organization of a stationary ballet company in the 1939/1940 season. Its core was formed by graduates of the Kyiv State Choreographic School in 1940 and experienced soloists and corps de ballet artists from the leading (Kyiv, Moscow, Leningrad State Academic Theatres) and peripheral theatres of the USSR; local dancers who received a choreographic education in dance studios in Lviv and refugees from German-occupied Poland also joined the work.

Методология. Для раскрытия темы применены аналитический, историко-хронологический, биографический подходы, что позволило провести научно-объективное исследование. Научная новизна. Впервые проведено специальное исследование творчества балетной труппы львовского оперно-балетного театра конца 30-х – начала 40-х годов ХХ века; введены в балетоведческое обращение имена ряда исполнителей. Выводы. Подъему профессионального исполнительского и балетмейстерского мастерства на сцене Львовской оперы способствовала организация стационарной балетной труппы в сезоне 1939/1940 гг. Ее ядро образовали выпускники Киевского ГХУ 1940 года и опытные солисты и артисты кордебалета из ведущих (Киевского, Московского, Ленинградского ГАТОБ) и периферийных театров СССР; к работе также присоединились местные танцовщики, которые получили хореографическое образование в танцевальных студиях Львова и беженцы из оккупированной немцами Польши. Первыми многоактными балетами стали «Дон-Кихот» (осужден за безыдейность, устарелость) и «Красный мак» (позиционировался в СССР как образец балета героической современной тематики). С началом Великой Отечественной войны значительная часть балетной труппы поехала в эвакуацию, часть осталась работать в театре, где ставились полноценные балеты (среди них «Сельская любовь», «Коппелия», «Вуаль для Пиеретты» и др.). После освобождения Львова от немецкой оккупации часть творческого состава балетной труппы эмигрировала (В. Переяславец, Р. Прийма и др.), часть оказалась в сталинских лагерях., Мета статті – виявити особливості формування та персональний склад балетної трупи Львівського оперного театру кінця 30-х – початку 40-х років ХХ ст. Методологія. Для розкриття теми застосовано аналітичний, історико-хронологічний, біографічний підходи, що дало змогу провести науково-об’єктивне дослідження. Наукова новизна. Уперше проведене спеціальне дослідження творчості балетної трупи львівського оперно-балетного театру кінця 30-х – початку 40-х років ХХ ст.; уведено до балетознавчого обігу імена ряду виконавців. Висновки. Піднесенню фахової виконавської і балетмейстерської майстерності на сцені Львівської опери сприяла організація стаціонарної балетної трупи в сезоні 1939/1940 рр. Її ядро утворили випускники Київського ДХУ 1940 р. й досвідчені солісти та артисти кордебалету з провідних (Київського, Московського, Ленінградського ДАТОБ) та периферійних театрів СРСР; до роботи також долучилися місцеві танцівники, які здобули хореографічну освіту в танцювальних студіях Львова та біженці з окупованої німцями Польщі. Першими багатоактними балетами стали «Дон-Кіхот» (засуджений за безідейність, застарілість) і «Червоний мак» (позиціонувався СРСР як зразок балету героїчної сучасної тематики). З початком німецько-радянської війни значна частина балетної трупи поїхала в евакуацію, частина залишилась працювати в театрі, де ставились повноцінні балети (серед них «Сільське кохання», «Коппелія», «Серпанок для Пієретти» та ін.). Після звільнення Львова від німецької окупації частина творчого складу балетної трупи емігрувала (В. Переяславець, Р. Прийма та ін.), частина опинилась у сталінських таборах.

Balet je u isto vrijeme i umjetnost i sport. Fizički zahtjevi u baletu su veoma jedinstveni. Pomicanje granica vlastitog tijela radi postizanja elegancije i estetike nadilaze biologiju ljudskog tijela. Profesionalni plesači u svijet baleta često ulaze u vrlo ranoj dobi. Školovanje je dugotrajno, mukotrpno i zahtijeva mnogo odricanja, rada i upornosti. Sistem selekcije postaje sve stroži na višim razinama školovanja. Intenzitet vježbi raste. Balet zahtjeva posebnu obuću, tzv. špice. Špice su posebno dizajnirane papučice u kojima plesač stoji na vrhovima prstiju sa stopalima u plantarnoj fleksiji. Biomehanika tijela u plesača se mijenja. Početni baletni položaj zahtijeva izravnate fiziološke krivine kralježnice, kontrakcije mišića prednje trbušne stjenke, ruka moraju biti u položaju prirodnog luka s izdignutim vratom. Noge idu u vanjsku rotaciju iz kuka s otvorenim stopalima prema kutu od 180º s potpunom ekstenzijom u koljenom zglobu. Baletni sat sastoji se od dva dijela, vježbi na štapu i centralno izvođenje nastave. Vježbe na štapu služe zagrijavanju tijela za centralni dio sata. U ciklusu sezone jedne baletne trupe do ozljeda najviše dolazi u periodu izvođenja baletne nastave i za vrijeme nastupanja. Rizični faktori koji povećavaju rizik nastanka ozljede su svakako vrsta poda na kojem se pleše i baletne špice. Najveći rizik za pojavu ozljeda imaju upravo donji ekstremiteti i kralježnica. Kod muških plesača također dolazi do ozljeda gornjih ekstremiteta zbog podizanja partnerica za vrijeme izvođenja pokreta u Pass de deuxu (plesu udvoje). Mehanizmi nastanka ozljeda su uslijed prenaprezanja ili traumatske etiologije. Najčešće ozljede su uganuće gležnja od traumatskih i ostale koje se javljaju uslijed prenaprezanja. Prenaprezanje je najčešći uzrok ozljeda u ženskih plesača, dok u muških plesača češći uzrok je traumatska etiologija. Traumatske ozljede zahvaćaju i mlade plesače koji tek stupe u plesnu trupu i nisu navikli na intenzitet programa. Kao rekreativna aktivnost, balet danas postaje sve popularniji., Ballet is at the same time and arts and sports. The physical requirements in ballet are very unique. Pushing the limits of our own body in order to achieve elegance and aesthetics go beyond biology of the human body. The professional ballet dancers often enter in that at a very early age. Education is a long-term, arduous and requires a lot of sacrifice, work and persistence. The system selection is becoming stricter on higher levels of education. The intensity of exercise increases. Ballet requires special shoes. Ballet shoes are specially designed for dancer to stand on tiptoe with the feet in plantar flexion. Biomechanics of the body changes in dancer’s body. Initial ballet position requires flattening of physiological curve of the spine, muscle contractions of the anterior abdominal wall, arms must be in a position of natural harbour with raised neck. The legs go to external rotation of the hip with open feet to the angle of 180 ° with full extension in the knee joint. Ballet lessons consists of two parts, the exercises on a Barre and a central teaching. Exercises on Barre serve to warm up the body for the central part of the class. In the cycle of seasons one ballet company injuries happen mostly during ballet classes and on the stage. Risk factors that increase the risk of injury are certainly types of dance floor and ballet shoes. The greatest risks for injury are lower extremities and spine. In male dancers also comes to injuries of the upper extremities due to raising partner during the movements in the Pass de deux (dance for two). Mechanisms of injuries are due to overuse or traumatic aetiology.. The most common injuries are traumatic ankle sprains and others that occur due to overuse. Overexertion is the most common cause of injuries in female dancers, while in male dancers common cause is of traumatic aetiology. Traumatic injuries affect young dancers who only come into dance troupe and their body is not used to the intensity and demands of the program. As a recreational activity, the ballet has become increasingly popular.
