joilieder: It’s kind of funny that I picked this photo to blog before I realized who the dancers were.  Sergei Polunin was a child prodigy from Ukraine who was sent to the London Royal Ballet School at the age of 13.  At 19 he became the youngest male to become a principal dancer.  This season, he was going to be dancing 4 major principals, one was to start next week (he’s now 21).  I’m giving you this background because a few days ago he quit the Royal Ballet Co. with no notice or reason why.  He’s shocked the Ballet world, at least in England and Ukraine. Speculations as to why are numerous.  I just hope that he is okay and if he wants to dance again in the future, he gets that chance.  I should tell you that the ballerina here is Lauren Cuthbertson.
