    • Abstract:
      The article discusses the role of ballerinas in the ballet industry of the 21st century. Choreographer George Balanchine always had ballerina as the central subjects of his ballets but today's top choreographers have changed it as they use the two male or two female pairings and reflect on today's social structure of society. Annabelle Lopez Ochoa's works stand apart on this issue as she uses ballerina-centric pieces.
