Fonteyn Nureyev Young Dancers Competition
Competition
No, that's not a mistake! The Fonteyn
Nureyev Young Dancers Competition is holding a separate competition
for tickets for the heats in Manchester and Birmingham - the Dancing
Duos competition. Here are the details:
Margot Fonteyn and Rudolf Nureyev, separately were two of the world's
most accomplished and respected dancers; together they changed the
face of ballet forever.
Fonteyn & Nureyev are the namesake's for the RAD's exciting,
new ballet competition, and in the spirit of partnership the Royal
Academy of Dance, Manchester City Ballet, Northern Ballet Theatre
and Birmingham Royal Ballet have come together to offer you the opportunity
to immerse yourself in dance.
You will not only win one of 5 pairs of tickets to attend the Fonteyn
Nureyev Young Dancers Competition heat in either Manchester or Birmingham
on 11th December, 2005, and witness the future stars of British ballet
battle for a place in the Final; you could also win tickets to see
Swan Lake at The Dancehouse Theatre, Madam Butterfly
at the Opera House, Manchester or Beauty & the Beast at
the Birmingham Hippodrome.
All you have to do to be in with a chance of winning is tell us:
Who is your all-time favourite dancing duo?
Whether it is Fred & Ginger, Natasha Kaplinsky & Brendan
Cole or perhaps even Fonteyn & Nureyev themselves, whoever they
are and whatever form of dancing they are famous for, just send their
names on a postcard to:
Dancing Duos Royal Academy of Dance,

The Fonteyn Nureyev Young Dancers Competition is a new and exciting
competition to promote ballet to young dancers (10-13 yrs) and provide
them with performance experience as well as the opportunity to work
with professionals of the calibre of Gillian Lynne CBE - who has choreographed
four variations exclusively for the competition. There are five regional
heats, with the Final taking place in April in Salford, at The Lowry.
