Oct 10 DQ - Farouk's Basil...still going 'strong'!


Recommended Posts

Some of you who have followed principal Farouk Ruzimatov through the years may be interested to know that the "almost-forty-something" star danced Basil at the Mariinsky this past Sunday, partnering Ekaterina Osmolkina as Kitri. My secret agents tell me that Osmolkina is much improved this year, technically....although she suffered a horrendous fall during her entrance solo. Ruzimatov was not quite himself but very good in the comic sections (the mock death).

However, the 'hit' of the Don Q last Sunday was Ilya Kuznetsov as Espada, sporting a new, jet-black wig that was the talk of the town. [imagine Ilya -- the big blonde Slavic Hercules-- in a jet-black wig!]
