The style of the productions and the movement used within Mats Ek's Giselle.

Mats Ek used things that he learnt in his life time/past.
Lots of ballet is used in the piece however movements that aren't ballet are also used - eg Giselle is dancing in the dark, rolling and kicking on the floor and she is twisitng on the floor. All of the movement that is used implies something. Giselle is running around the stage which implies she is free and doesn't have a care in the world.
The farmers and marching in unison. Men pull women around which shoes the men are in control. Albrecht and Hillarion's movement is in the air - very high.
