18 Nov 2020 The Tokyo Ballet streams "M" to commemorate the 50th Anniversary of Yukio Mishima's Death
The Tokyo Ballet streams legendary ballet "M" choreographed by Maurice Béjart to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the ritual suicide of Japan's most famous postwar novelist, Yukio Mishima. When Maurice Béjart set about choreographing a new ballet for The Tokyo Ballet in 1993, he chose Mishima as a motif. However, he did not create a biography nor use ballet to illustrate Mishima's work of literature whose importance was not yet fully recognized at that time. It was Béjart's bold experimentation to "simply suggest, and above all, love -- without ever judging".
