| Description: | There are only three older ballet companies in the world, those of Paris, Copenhagen and St. Petersburg. Sweden got its first professional ballet company when King Gustaf III founded a Swedish Opera in Stockholm in 1773. Theatre was the king's great passion, and he loved acting and writing his own plays. He never appeared as a dancer, however, obviously because of the physical difficulties this gave him - he had a slight limp. |
