  • Misha and Makarova. HEAVEN.

  • Makarova, taught at the Mariinsky do footwork. But to understand what she was doing on stage, she had to learn myself. She never learned.

  • THEY KILLED HIM?!? Dang, I've never seen such a well-coordinated murder! ;)  I don't believe this! Everybody dies! Hilarion was the good boy here who only wanted Giselle to be happy but not lied to, AND THEY KILLED HIM! Look out, I'm having a Romeo/Juliet fit. Ignore me...(emo corner)

  • lol he did one (amazing) grande jete en tournant and got an applause. he needed more dancing parts in this. and their pas de deux was beyond words. arguably the best performance of giselle ever

  • who is that the queen or giselle?

  • u know i never figured that out either but i rember when iwas a little girl i thought it was justice. dont know why but i just thought it was know i kinda feel bad for him. mabey if he would have kept his mouth shut, i was also pissed at giselle) here was her chance to teach him a lesson. he lucky it wasn't me. thats all ican say lol

  • My favourite ballet. The second act is the best bit, (if there is one!) Thanks for sharing.

  • They're flying :-) I wish I could jump that high! I dance Albrecht in a few weeks and we nearly have the same choreo... and oh my god that would be fantastic...
