LimelightAnyone who has ever seen a live performance of ballet
knows the thrill of seeing larger-than-life figures on stage
dancing in ways that seem superhuman. What are these dancers like
beyond the footlights? How have they acquired such artistry and
technique? What are the joys and difficulties in sustaining their
careers? What dreams would they like to fulfill as performers?
Round About the Ballet profiles the stars of the top New York City
ballet companies: American Ballet Theatre and the New York City
Ballet. Selected by Roy Round, one of the world's leading dance
photographers, the dancers profiled represent the very best in
ballet today. The dancers are brought to life through stories of
their lives, real-life interviews, and the stunning photgraphs of
Roy Round. This book is for ballet fans, dance students, collectors
of photo books, and people who are curious about the performing
arts. This is a book that, once opened, will be hard to put down.
