  • her dancing is absolutely mesmerizing. i could not tear my eyes away from her. she not only is an spectacular dancer but she also is a very believable actress. she is as close as you can get to perfect.

  • My ballet idol.

  • when her critics can do what MF did, then they can criticise!

  • The joy of great dance, music and story combine in Ashton’s Cinderella, a fairytale rooted in a magical brilliance and great charm. Everything comes together for a perfect Easter treat with The Royal Ballet:

  • Music of my youth: Prokofiev's Cinderella with choreography by The Royal Ballet's Sir Fredrick Ashton (who also appears as one of the stepsisters) and Margot Fonteyn as Cinderella. Notably, Kenneth MacMillan appears in this production as the second, "bossy" stepsister. MacMillan later choreographed the Royal Ballet's stunning and world-famous production of Prokofiev's Romeo & Juliet, my favorite ballet.

  • I hope my daughter will grow to like the Ballet.

  • cool

  • Grace and perfection. She is beautiful. When I was a little girl I wanted to be Margot...Lovely...

  • TO Waffle house-you don't say, Sherlock. It does not take a lawyer from Philadelphia to note the cracking thought -provoking one liners from the general viewers.

  • this is Youtube, Sunshine! no credentials are required before commenting, hadn't you noticed?!?

    come, one; come, all!!
