Cecchetti Day at the Royal Ballet School with Dame Monica Mason and Dame Darcey Bussell teaching Elite Syncopations to members of the Royal Ballet Company

Dame Monica Mason and Dame Darcey Bussell talked to the teachers at the Cecchetti Day hosted at the Royal Ballet School. They had many stories to recount regarding the production of Elite Syncopation,  which was choreographed by Kenneth Macmillan and was one of his  more light hearted  pieces.  I saw the ballet many years ago and loved it. It is being performed in April/May 2018 at the Royal Opera House.
