Tony Newcombe Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 (edited) Where are the black ballet dancers?: Olivia Goldhill & Sarah Marsh, The Guardian If the authors of this article had looked at the official government figures for 2011 re population ethnicity for England and Wales they may well have taken a different view. 2 in 64 is pretty good.

Jan McNulty Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Celine Gittens and Tyrone Singleton are dancing Swan Lake together at BRB this Autumn. Having seen them do the Act 2 adagio together on midscale South I would say that they are definitely the cast to watch out for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Newcombe Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 As soon as casting was announced, just had to get ticket for this. Really looking forward to performance. It's BRB we have to look to for adventurous casting these days. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alison Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 I won't bother putting a link, but I've just been reading some coverage of the US Open (tennis) in the New York Times, and was rather taken aback to see this headline: "Makarova and Soares, Last-Minute Teammates, Win Mixed Doubles" It has to be said, that's some age gap Edit: oh, it's come out as a link anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
