In 1958, under the guidance of Soviet expert Pyotr Gusev, the National Ballet of China brought Swan Lake to a Chinese stage for the very first time, marking the ballet from the West first taking root in the East. More than 50 years later, Swan Lake is a household name in China. Meanwhile, the National Ballet of China had experimented, putting out two new versions of Swan Lake in a row, using mostly young dancers, and attracted so much attention. For many years, the National Ballet of China has presented their audiences with selected versions of Swan Lake and has ultimately chosen to stage the one of the ballet divas, Natalia Makarova.
