alison Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 My apologies, because it will be too late for anyone to get a copy by now, but "Stella" magazine in the Sunday Telegraph had an interview with Darcey Bussell on her move back to the UK and future plans. It didn't seem to overlap too much with the other interviews we've posted here recently. I don't think "Stella" articles ever come online, but you're welcome to look. Edit: I do have a copy of this if someone would like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alison Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 LOL. Interesting to know that the death of the celebrity doesn't necessarily hamper the impersonator's career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alison Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 That "tutu" article is very interesting. I must admit, I'd never thought to look for all those nuances in the Rose Adage before, although I have sometimes been disconcerted at the rather over-confident characterisation of various Auroras over the years.

Jane S Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 Debra Craine has a long interview with Alexei Ratmansky in this morning's Times - mostly about his Cinderella in Edinburgh but mentioning also the new piece he's doing for the RB next season: an abstract work to music by Jean Francaix, which he describes as 'rhythmically, the most sophisticated classical music I know, yet it's light-hearted with lots of humour. It speaks to me, I love it.' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alison Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 Thanks, Jane. I was in the library this afternoon, so could have looked it up if I'd known. Oh well, one for the next visit ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
