wocomoCULTURE | Darcey Bussell: A Ballerina's Life | British Prima Ballerina lifts the curtain on the ballet world @wocomoCULTURE | Uploaded September 2021 | Updated October 2024, 8 hours ago.
Darcey compares the dance world today with the way it was when Fonteyn was a star – the days when a strict hierarchy and etiquette were unquestionably observed in ballet schools and companies and, off-stage, glamour, large hats, and white gloves were de rigeur.

Prima ballerina Darcey Bussell has been Britain’s hottest dance star ever since she was plucked from corps de ballet obscurity at the age of nineteen. Now at the peak of her career, she is feted for her breath-taking arabesques and bold, physical attack. The darling of photographers the world over, Bussell remains refreshingly free of celebrity mystique and has no time for the politics and egos of the dance world. Her passion is ballet, not the fame it brings.
