A review of the Royal Ballet School's summer performance by Jann Parry for DanceTabs.

Quote

The BalletBoyz, Michael Nunn and William Trevitt, had filmed the White Lodgers back at school, delightfully introduced by a pupil from each year’s class. They range in age from 11-16; the Upper School in Covent Garden is for 16-19 year olds. (Trevitt’s son Elijah is one of the 3rd year graduates, with a contract from The Australian Ballet.) A glimpse at the start of the film of the youngsters at home on their practice mats, taking class by Zoom, was a reminder of how unusual lockdown has been for dancers of all ages.

Next were a series of pas de deux from the company’s past: the dancing of Yasmine Naghdi and Joseph Sissens made an unexpected highlight of Wayne McGregor’s Morgen, as they found striking new inflections in its longing for a better world. The third act of The Sleeping Beauty, the Royal Ballet’s signature piece, became a rich showcase for the deep classical understanding of Marianela Nuñez, a princess in her kingdom, her smile as broad as the stage.
