The Royal Ballet of London looks for dancers in the farthest corners of the earth. In Marianela Nuñez, they found one in just such a corner. 😊
Marianela Nuñez came from distant Argentina to join the Royal Ballet's Upper School in 1997 at the age of fifteen, eventually becoming a principal dancer in five short years. Among her roles with the Royal Ballet are Swanhilda in Coppélia, the Sugar Plum Fairy in The Nutcracker, Lise in La fille mal gardée, Mitzi Caspar in Mayerling, Natalia Petrovna in A Month in the Country, and many, many more.
Fun fact: Ms. Nuñez has lived in Britain for so long, she's since become a British citizen.
