Summary/Abstract: Dance-Theatre, Dancing Theatre and Dram-Ballet (Observations and Comparisons between the Dance-Attacks of "Arabesque" and the Dancing Theatre of Neshka Robeva) Analyzing “the Dance Attacks” of the ballet “Arabesque” and the dance spectacles of Neshka Robeva the article follows the differences in the inter­ action of dance, speech, music and video-projections in the Bulgarian dancing theatre in the past few years. In the dram-ballet speech and music completely overlap as means of expression. In the dancing theatre speech (frequently this is the vocal) and movements develop in parallel information streams. In the dance-theatre the dance and speech have different, often polar information direction -it is a conversation in different languages or different messages between speech and the body expression. In the dram-ballet and the dancing theatre there is a definite plot. In the dance-theatre there are separate scenes, which do not build up a plot. The dance-theatre and the dancing theatre are oriented towards the expressionism of the modern dance, whereas the dram-ballet develops on the basis of the classical dance. In the three of them, however, the gesture and the pantomime are of decisive significance. The dance-theatre and the dancing theatre lie in the opposition negative­ positive. The dance-theatre has become a way to express or more exactly to shout out the amassed negative energy -loneliness, despair, misunderstanding. At the same time in the dancing theatre the Bulgarian folk dance and the collective dance creation accumulate positive energy and convey it to the public. Up to now the dance-theatre in Bulgaria has no convincing realization on Bulgarian themes, whereas in different periods of development of ballet art the dancing theatre and the dram-ballet performed stage works after Bulgarian myths and legends. This makes the dance-theatre imposed upon the Bulgarian way and view of life to some extent, although some attempts are being made to turn it into something Bulgarian - mostly in the productions of Vazkresia Viharova and Antonia Dokeva.
