The question is raised about the meaning of the plot, event-related beginning in genres of the considered arts. Based on a number of studies in the field of choreography, the author uses a system-semiotic analysis of a semantic category in dance. In the article the questions concerning the genre and stylistic solutions ballets and dance numbers staged by examples of decisions of the nineteenth, twentieth century, considered the relation of genre and style in the structure of a number of ballet performances. Of all types of expressive dance art tends to be the most figurative.
