For whom is the book Mosaic written? Ballet. Nutcracker? For children and adults; for those who are ready to travel through time and different countries; for those who love history, art and those who are not interested in them at all. Is it not curious to know why the priests of ancient Egypt danced, and the Greek sandals were relatives of ballet shoes; why did King Louis XIV of France get the nickname of the Sun King, and the four horses in Apollo’s chariot that adorn the Grand Theatre have names; how does it snow on the stage, and what is a kite, a kantik, a pocket, a peephole, a hatch? Not only that! Ballet is a country full of miracles. The performance in it, as in a children's game called "Mosaic", is formed only if literature, music, painting, the skill of the choreographer and artists are harmoniously combined with each other. This and much more will be told in this book. And so that no one gets lost in the centuries and the theatrical maze, a well-known fairy-tale character named the Nutcracker is given to help travelers. Good trip!
