Eileen Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 How is Mimi doing in the last row of the corps de ballet (I assume)? She was featured in Teen Vogue's series Strictly Ballet along with a group of other SAB advanced dancers, a few of whom were chosen as NYCB apprentices. Has anyone spotted her on stage? Or any of other apprentices? She was very beautiful and poised. Link to comment

Funny, my husband frequently has his eye on the corps for exceptional talent, and his percentage rate for predicting promotions is amazing!! Link to comment
sandik Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 I remember the series, but I cannot find it at the moment and don't remember her last name... Link to comment
Eileen Posted August 26, 2014 Author Share Posted August 26, 2014 Her last name was not given. I'm sure we'll get informed reports once the season starts. Since I am now exiled out of town, I rely on the perceptive comments of reviewers here. Link to comment
Amour Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 Mimi's last name is Staker and she is now officially a member of the corps, no longer an apprentice. According to my program, she danced in the snowflake section of at least 2 of the Nutcrackers I saw. I'll try to keep a look out for her during the winter season. Interestingly, a few of her fellow students (who were selected as apprentices at the same time) are still apprentices. A few others simply aren't there and a few, like Mimi, have corps contracts.

Eileen Posted January 3, 2015 Author Share Posted January 3, 2015 Thank you for this information, Amour. I'm glad she was "taken in" to the company. She has such spark. Link to comment
kfw Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 She was in both Snowflakes and Flowers on 12/7. Link to comment
