MarkH Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 (edited) Hi, I wondered if anyone can help me with identifying these dancers? All of the photos are by Leslie E. Spatt. Thanks for your help! Edited September 8, 2021 by MarkH Photos were too large. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 Photo on the left: José Manuel Carreno in Swan Lake ( looks like RB Dowell production) Middle: Carreno and Leanne Benjamin in Don Quixote (RB Baryshnikov production) Right: Carreno again? Not sure. For a second, I thought the face was Peter Schaufuss! Carreno joined ENB in 1990, moved to Royal Ballet in 1993 and later ABT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rina Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 Could the one on the right playing Colas be Bruce Sansom? I remember seeing him in that role in the late 1980s, always a smooth and elegant dancer. However I also saw Stephen Jefferies at about the same time and the photo looks a little like him too! Another fine dancer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diandri Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 The first two are definitely JM Carreno & the other one is either Bruce Sansom or possibly Stuart Cassidy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bridiem Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 I thought it could be Bruce Sansom, but not absolutely sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alison Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 I'm pretty sure it's not Cassidy. My immediate reaction was Jefferies, but it might be Sansom. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

capybara Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 The legs on the right side picture are more Bruce Sansom than Stephen Jeffries. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alison Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 And they're certainly not very Cassidy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rachel H Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Picture 3 definitely looks like Bruce Sansom to me too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
