A Bold, Beautiful Victory For Ballet At The British National Dance Awards

Chase Johnsey, of the all-male Les Ballets Trockadero de Monte Carlo (the Trocks), “faced off competition from the likes of Vadim Muntagirov and Alexander Campbell, both principal dancers at the Royal. Johnsey’s win is not only a celebration of his talent, but also a celebration of the fact that ballet, however rigorous its traditions, has an inalienable genius for the wayward, the comic and the camp.”
