Prisca Zeisel: New Begin at the Mikhailovsky Theatre (St. Petersburg)

Prisca Zeisel, former demi-soloist at the Vienna State Ballet and later Principal at the Bavarian State Ballet, has made a move to the Mikhailovsky Theathre in St. Petersburg.

Although some pro-Putin German “Ballet critics” will rejoice with this news, I prefer to refrain from publishing my opinion about Miss Zeisel’s “step” and just report it, as a neutral coverage.

I don’t want ever to mix Ballet with Politics on my platform.
