Born in Paris, he studied dance with Louis Dupré of the Paris Opera, but opted for a career as a choreographer instead. He was ballet-master at the Paris Opera Comique (1754), the royal court theatre of Württemberg (now the Stuttgart Ballet, 1760-66) and the Paris Opera (under the patronage of Queen Marie Antoinette, 1776-79). He also worked extensively in Lyons, Vienna and Milan. In 1760 he published his important Lettres sur la danse ("Letters on Dance"). During the French Revolution he formed a company at the King's Theatre, London, where he staged his last of approximately 150 ballets, none of which has survived. He claimed invention of the notion of the ballet d'action, in which truthful movement expression was integrated with plot, music and décor. This theory has had a great influence on ballet as it is known and practised today.
