Alicia Alonso, who created the ballerina role in George Balanchine's Theme and variations for Ballet Theatre in 1947, coaches Paloma Herrera and Angel Correra in the choreography for the leading female and male dancers in the ballet. The excerpts rehearsed are the opening theme, pas de deux, two male variations, and two female variations. In an interview Alonso recalls the creation of the ballet and the difficulty of its choreography, noting Balanchine's practice of constantly challenging his dancers. She describes the contrasting moods of the ballerina's three solos in the ballet, and the ballet's unusual structure. She discusses Balanchine's musicality, which allowed the whole body to become expressive; the special eloquence of head movements; and the rapport between male and female dancers in pas de deux, with special reference to her longstanding partnership with Igor Youskevitch, who created Theme and variations with her.

Frederic Franklin, who danced the role of the Bridegroom (Young Man) in the 1940 and 1946 Ballet Russe de Monte Carlo stagings of Le baiser de la fée (first presented by the American Ballet in 1937), reconstructs a pas de deux and woman's solo from the ballet. He is assisted by Maria Tallchief and Vida Brown, both of whom danced the role of the Fairy. In an interview with Jack Anderson, Tallchief, Franklin and Brown discuss productions of the ballet by the Ballet Russe de Monte Carlo (1940, 1946) and the Paris Opéra Ballet (1947), as well as Balanchine's later work, Divertimento from Le baiser de la fée (1972). They compare the role of the Young Man to that of the Poet in Night shadow (La sonnambula), and discuss some recurring themes in Balanchine's ballets, noting that Balanchine himself seldom voiced his artistic intentions.

Caravaggio, born Michelangelo Merisi, has entered history due to his paintings of dramatic intensity. Caravaggio used to venture the threshold beyond the pale throughout his life. He was seen for admiration of his work and harsh opposition towards his extraordinary realism in painting human beings. Due to his passionate personality, he encountered more than several conflicts with people around him, sponsors, and the law. One of his foremost artistic twists was the extreme contrast between brightness and darkness, light and shadow. Mauro Bigonzetti is one of the leading choreographers of the Italian ballet which freed itself from the predominance of mainly classical opera companies in the 80’s. He created his choreographies mainly for the Aterballetto in Reggio Emilia that helped him to fame and worldwide attention. “When I think of Caravaggio, I think of the artist and the human being at the same time. These are the two sides of the human existence that interest me in particular. The relations of these two worlds are the inspiration for this work: the inner world on the one hand – and how it evolves artistically on the other.” Mauro Bigonzetti has developed the piece CARAVAGGIO in collaboration with the Staatsballett Berlin.
