Alexander Gorsky (August 6, 1871 – 1924), a Russian ballet choreographer and a contemporary of Marius Petipa, is known for restaging Petipa’s classical ballets such as Swan Lake, Don Quixote, and The Nutcracker. Gorsky “sought greater naturalism, realism, and characterization” in ballet. He valued acting skills over bravura technique ( a showy display of skills such as many turns or high jumps.) His interpretations of ballets were often controversial and he often used artists outside the dance world to create sets and costumes.

  • Avviò la carriera di ballerino al teatro Mariinskij, ove fu probabilmente il più importante solista dell'epoca. Divenuto docente di notazione della danza, nel 1902 mise in scena una versione arditamente rivisitata del Don Chisciotte di Marius Petipa. Acquisita notevole fama, rivisitò nel 1905 La figlia del faraone, nel 1908 Raymonda, nel 1911 Giselle e nel 1919 Lo schiaccianoci di Petipa. Fu inoltre fertile autore di coreografie originali; tra queste Sten'ka Razin (1918), sul celebre cosacco, e la Danza di Salomè del 1921. (it)
