V strong opening night of #ROHgiselle. So much to love. Peter Wright's perfect prod, @NatOsipova in 1 of her best roles, @reece273 making an excellent role debut (my god, those act 2 entrechats!!) #MayaraMagri a wonderful Myrthe, a top notch supporting cast + the brilliant corps

#rohgiselle is Osipova’s Kingdom. Extraordinary depth and light and shade and heart, before we even mention the incredible dancing. The Act 2 Corps was super-sensational and downright perfect. And now can we talk about Reece Clarke’s Entrechats?! 💗

Watching Osipova in Giselle is like watching utter perfection. Her dancing is pure emotion.

A huge bravissimi to the ladies of @TheRoyalBallet corps for an absolutely tremendous #ROHGiselle act 2 this evening. And to ballet mistress @RaineSamantha too! 👏👏👏

Every time she dances this role she brings along yet another nuanced portrait - something new to savour - a gesture or a movement that catches you - @NatOsipova reigns supreme #ROHgiselle
