My first Neapoltan Dance in 1971 was Merle Park and Alexander Grant, both principals, and I still remember the expectation, and consquent delight, epxerienced by audiences in the later 1970's reading that the Neapolitan was to be danced by Lesley Collier and Wayne Sleep, both Principals. During the late 1970's / early 1980's, I do recall Laura Connor and Wendy Ellis as a Big Swan and Zulma (or was it Moyna), both of which would have involved them as Principals in Corps de Ballet work. It's probably also true to say, with no disrespect intended, that both ladies were rather like Laura Morera in that they had defnite qualities which deserved promotion but were not obvious principal material and that the sheer exigencies of keeping them on stage necssitated some sideways thinking casting wise. I'd also like to make it clear that I think Laura Morera a splendid dancer and whilst I'd be delighted to see her Neapolitan I would think it odd to see her now in a role that involved extensive corps de ballet work.
