Don Quixote is considered one of the most joyous and festive of the classical ballets, brimming with spectacular virtuoso dancing. A short prologue based on mime action is followed by an act called A Square in Barcelona, in which classical choreography imitating the "Spanish Style" is predominant, with a sprinkling of character-dances. The second act, The Gypsy Camp, comes as a sharp contrast –where pantomime and character-dancing reign supreme. The next act, Dulcinea's Garden, is a purely classical one in which only female dancers appear. This is followed by A Tavern in Seville; once again, there is plenty of character-dancing and acting –and traditionally, even the ballerina wears heeled shoes in the scene. The final wedding celebration is an extended classical grand pas with the now famous pas de deux of the main characters.
