prima ballerina

Where it comes from

From Italian.

noun prima ballerinas

  1. The leading ballerina in a dance company. This elaborate ballet is a little too long for a modern audience, the action is not always clear to those who do not understand the language of gesture, while the elaborate and extremely difficult movements of the prima ballerina lose part of the effect they made in the far-off days of Fanny Elssler
