#Repost @sydneycityyouthballet with @get_repost ・・・ A little snippet from a story on SCYB Artistic Director Lucinda Dunn in her very early years with The Australian Ballet, provider by the ABC. Very precious showing the connection and history with Maina Gielgud and her early love of the ballet Giselle. Maina Gielgud will reunite with Lucinda Dunn this month to pass on her incredibly rich history and experience directing Giselle and the the two will pass on this knowledge to the fortunate artists of the SCYB.

#Repost @katherinesonnekus ・・・ This is me attempting Giselle’s Act 1 solo many moons ago as a young girl @tanya_pearson_academy So looking forward to opening Giselle at the end of this month with @ausballet This ballet is so special to me and has been so close to my heart for as long as I can remember. Most of the time I hate watching myself dance but this seems like memorabilia too precious to feel ashamed of.
