Pierre PetitJean presentes 75 photographs from the thousands he has taken "backstage" at the ballet. In Wings, corridors, and rehearsal halls, before mirrors and the barre, his camera has captured scenes no audience ever sees -scenes of grueling work and intense commitment; of hope, anguish, despair, and love. The pictures, accompanied by his commentary, portray both the famous and the aspiring, the stars and the corps de ballet of many of today's foremost dance companies. the result is a unique introduction to a hidden world- the world where pierre petitjean has sought and found "the true soul of ballet".
