Summary/Abstract: The purpose of the article is to analyze the ballet "For Two Hares" based on a comparison of literature, film, and original music. Methodology. The article is based on a comparative analysis, analysis of the literary source, the musical component of ballet and film. Based on the comparison, the analysis of the main characters and related comic elements of the work of M. Starytsky and the ballet Shevchenko - Litvinov, based on this plot. These are Svirid Petrovich Holokhvasty, Pronya, Galya, Sekleta Pylypivna Limarykha and the Sirkiv couple. The scientific novelty lies in determining the peculiarities of Yuri Shevchenko's original music in the ballet "For Two Hares". The analysis of ballet music was performed for the first time. Conclusions. The comparative analysis of Yu. Shevchenko's ballet and M. Starytsky's comedy allowed us to single out common comic elements: "meeting" with the main character Golokhvasty; the choice of leittembs (clarinet, violin and piano) is associated with the comic nature of Golokhvasty and the emphasis on his external features: thinness and "mannerism", claims to chic and education; the portrait of Golohvasty in the ballet and his appearance (clothes and accessories) corresponds to the image of Golohvasty from the original source; Golohvastoy's weakness for girls; Golohvasty's love for songs and dances; hopak, which appears in both comedy and ballet. Common to comedy and ballet are also the leitmotif of the bells, the romanticization of the scene of the testimony of Golohvasty in the house of Proni. The multifaceted, contrasting image of Sekleta is also vividly represented in both works. The common comic element is defined by the red cap of Sulfur; Sekleta's "fig" gesture, we consider the motif of rumors to be a comic motif, which is conveyed in ballet by all means of expression (musical, choreographic and visual).
