Abstract

The article provides information on how the presence of language in the ballet-pantomime and characters of ballet who were capable to use language as opera characters enabled the two types of characters to effectively communicate. It explores the dialogues between ballet characters and opera characters which occurred relatively rarely because in almost all of the operas of the period, opera and ballet characters mingled together only in advertisements.
