Giselle
Giselle was produced by other ballet companies in Europe and America almost immediately after its first night. The British had their first taste of Gisellenot with the ballet but with a drama based on the ballet called Giselle, or The Phantom Night Dancers by William Moncrieff. He had seen the ballet in Paris the same year. The play was performed on 23 August 1841 at the Theatre Royal, Sadler's Wells.
