Chout, Op. 21, is a ballet by Sergei Prokofiev. It was originally composed in 1915, then extensively revised at the request of Serge Diaghilev in 1921. The composer extracted an orchestral suite from it, Op. 21 bis. The ballet's full title is Tale of the Jester Who Outwits Seven Other Jesters (Russian: Сказка про шута, семерых шутов перешутившего, romanized: Skazka pro shuta, semerykh shutov pereshutivshego). The most commonly used title for the work is based on the French transliteration of the Russian word for "jester", shut.
