Lee Christofis lists some of his favorites from years of watching dance.

Quote

My love of ballet emerged watching the Borovansky Ballet, the Australian Ballet and the Royal Ballet between 1960 and 1963. Aged 12, I wagged school to see my first Giselle at Her Majesty’s Theatre, and Paul Grinwis’s one-act drama The Eternal Lovers, where Love and Death fight for the souls of Romeo and Juliet. Later I saw Grinwis dance Vaslav Nijinsky’s Afternoon of a faun in the intimate Lisner Academy Theatre.
