Summary/Abstract: The purpose of the article is to demonstrate the role of spatial and temporal arts in the creation of a choreographic character. To study the relationship between the visual and musical arts as an integral component of the ballet shows. To show the interconnection of the Ukrainian ballet theater, national folklore, and literature. Methodology. A complex of methods has been applied in the study, such as historical, comparative, typological, analysis and generalization method, descriptive, visual, artistic-stylistic (analysis of the creative manner of separate authors, their schools, and art epochs). Owing to these methods we have studied the individual creative manner of separate stage designers, composers, and ballet-masters as well as the synthesis and artistic stylistics of choreographic works. The scientific novelty of this work is in revealing the role of spatial and temporal arts in the creation of a choreographic character, particularly, in demonstration of the underlying interconnection of the visual and musical arts. In this context, we have studied the individual creative manner and the unique style of the known Ukrainian stage designers, composers, musicians, and choreographers. Conclusions. The creation of a highly professional choreographic character using spatial and temporal arts is an exceptionally complicated creative process. In this process, there can be an observed collaboration of the stage director, composer, stage designer, and ballet-master. In this context of great importance is not only the individual but also the collective creative work of the artists involved in the creation of the choreographic character in line with the opportunities and means of those types of art within whose frameworks they do their job. It should be noted that the perfect plastic language of the visual art combined with the musical accompaniment and choreographic plastic produces the whole integral image of the performance. The essential components of the creation of the artistic character are the artistic style and the performance techniques as well as the combination of tradition and pioneering work. However, the study of the points pertaining to the problem of the creation of the choreographic character using spatial and temporal arts still requires greater in-depth investigations.
