Helene Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 I haven't seen Osmolkina live for many years, but she was lovely when I did see her. Link to comment
naomikage Posted October 17, 2018 Author Share Posted October 17, 2018 I saw her as Giselle opposite Kimin Kim guesting in Universal Ballet's Giselle this April and she was the ideal Mariinsky Giselle, so exquisite and ethereal. Haven't seen her as O/O yet but I regard this as a good replacement and am considering to add tickets. Link to comment
