Alexander Campbell was one of the dancers that really piqued my interest in Ballet after I watched the wonderful Mad Hatter rehearsal streamed for WBD (along with the fantastic Beatrix Stix-Brunell!). I always enjoyed watching his various rehearsals streamed on YouTube, in particular his Mercutio.
I echo everyone’s sentiment about what an exceptional actor he is, along with his incredible solo and partnering technique.
I also agree he was much under-utilised. I was hoping the Prodigal Son was rescheduled so we could see him and his very talented wife Claire Calvert dance together.
I also would have loved to have seen his Siegfried and Rudolf.
However our loss is RAD’s gain and I have no doubt he will be an exceptional AD.
