How do you write a ballet story?

Answer 1

First, you need to do a LOT of research so that you can portray the world of Ballet accurately. Dancing is hard work, and most dancers actually hurt themselves trying to dance their best.

Second, find some good, solid characters with which the readers can identify.

Third, the rest is up to you as a writer. You must find the story inside your own heart for it to be a good story. I suggest reading some ballet stories and books to see how other writers have done it.

Another Opinion:

Being a dancer is very hard work. Taking ballet or a hardcore dance class would be helpful in writing a ballet story - but you don't have to. Your reader should be able to experience the hardships involved in dancing, as well as the fun.

The opinion of a dancer:

If you are writing a ballet play think of any random story and use ballet steps and ballet dances to tell the audiences what the story is.

If your writing a story about ballet dancers then it's best to watch ballets and watch students in ballet class and find out what ballet dancers do when they are not dancing in class.
