vissi d'arte Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 During the curtain call after Thirsdays performance of Cendrillon, ballet master Madeleine Onne stepped out on stage, and told a moved Nadja Sellrup she had been nominated Principal Dancer!! Not that it's a big surprise; Nadja is one of the Royal Swedish Ballet's strongest and most exiting dancers. She has already danced big leading roles as Odette/Odile in Swan Lake and Giselle. Nadja is dancing the role of the Good Fairy/the Mother in Cendrillon (she literally glows)! http://dansportalen.se/ http://www.operan.se/templates/ActorDetail...amp;actorid=910 http://www.operan.se/templates/ListingIndex.aspx?id=701 Link to comment
stephanie Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 Good news How lovely and exiting for her!!!! Can I ask what are your views on the second cast of Anders Nordstrom/ Sarah Medley Anna Valev/ Jan-Erik Wikstrom(the rsb prince expert) I have seen both casts, both excellent- but with different interpretation. Having read all the postive reviews (with one exception you can not please everyone) The nummer.se gave the performance of the 5 juni (the above cast) 4 stars out of five. ( Please forgive may swedish translation it is a bit rusty) " The most artistic and technically strong performances I have seen on the stage of the Kungliga operan for a long time" All this is very good news for the Royal Swedish Ballet. I am going for the last night 14 Juni 3rd time ( a first for me) Link to comment
