The Queensland Ballet was one of our wonderful sponsors at the Brisbane August Ascend. And I am delighted to announce that they are offering a discount for all sphinxx readers to attend their upcoming production. I might have to squeeze in a trip to Brisbane in the next few weeks…

Fonteyn Remembered: Her dance career was simply extraordinary. Dame Margot Fonteyn was adored and revered, inspiring countless young dancers. She held the world of ballet at her feet for decades, and left memories which would never be erased. But for all the joy and triumph, Fonteyn’s life was marked by great sadness.

This world première production uses a unique partnership of drama and dance to tell Fonteyn’s story. Some of our finest actors portray key figures in her turbulent life, including Constant Lambert, Dame Ninette de Valois and Sir Frederick Ashton. The dancers of Queensland Ballet pay tribute to Fonteyn’s exceptional gifts as a dancer.  Fonteyn Remembered is a deeply moving homage to a unique artist.
