Biography
Vakhtang Mikheilis dze Chabukiani (Georgian: ვახტანგ მიხეილის ძე ჭაბუკიანი, March 12, 1910 – April 6, 1992) was a Soviet and Georgian ballet dancer, choreographer and teacher. He is considered to be one of the most influential male ballet dancers of the 20th century, and is noted for creating the choreography of several of the most famous male variations of the classical ballet repertory, for example in Le Corsaire, La Bayadère, and Swan Lake.
He is also noted for his and Vladimir Ponomaryov's 1941 revival of La Bayadère for the Kirov Ballet, which is still retained in the company's repertory and has served as the basis for many subsequent productions in Russia and abroad.
