[…] the holders of Petit´s rights and the chance to recuperate a valuable artist was there; no more. Herrera healed instead another Colón disaster: Tchaikovsky´s "The Nutcracker" with Nureyev in his own choreography was an enormous success here; after his death, his representative, Aleth Francillon, revived it for a while, but eventually she had a terrible row with both Colón erstwhile Director Pedro Pablo García Caffi and Ballet Directress Lidia Segni; Francillon vowed publicly that she wouldn´t return whilst both held their posts.

Lidia Segni presented her own rather staid revision in recent years. And now Guerra offers his very different views. He feels that Petipa took too little notice of Quixote, and so he gives them more participation in different places. His Sancho is less funny than Prebil´s. But the real innovation is the presence of Cervantes, who […]
