Stéphane Bullion (born in 1980) is an ''Etoile'' dancer of the Paris Opera Ballet. Stéphane Bullion started dance at age eleven and entered the Paris Opera Ballet school at age fourteen (1994). He joined the corps de ballet in 1997. During his school years, he danced twice at the School annual show (1996 and 1997), in Serge Lifar's "''Le Chevalier et la demoiselle''" and George Balanchine's ''Western Symphony''. He became Coryphée in 2001, Sujet in 2002 and Premier danseur in 2007. He has been appointed Etoile, the highest grade of the company, in 2010 after his performance of Solor in Rudolf Nureyev’s version of ''La Bayadère''. ==Career== He danced the Faun in Vaslav Nijinsky's ''L'après-midi d'un faune'' based on Claude Debussy's ''Prélude à l'après-midi d'un faune'' while still a Coryphée in 2001 and has been chosen by Yury Grigorovich in 2004 for the title role of Ivan, in ''Ivan The Terrible''. Cast at first in villain's roles in the Rudolf Nureyev's versions of classics where they are major roles (Abderam in ''Raymonda'', Tybalt in ''Romeo and Juliet'' or Rothbart in ''Swan Lake''), his promotion to Premier danseur in 2007 gave him access to romantic roles like Armand in John Neumeier’s ''The Lady of the Camellias'', Jean de Brienne in Nureyev’s ''Raymonda'' or Albrecht in Bart’s version of Corrali-Perrot’s staging of ''Giselle''. While still favouring these main roles in Nureyev's repertoire after he reached the status of Etoile, he dances Siegfried in Swan Lake or Lucien d'Hervilly in Pierre Lacotte’s ''Paquita'' as well. Tall and powerful dancer, he has, since the beginning of his career, often been chosen by choreographers to create or introduce their ballets in Paris Opera Ballet’s repertoire.
