reviews
Review/Ballet; An Australian 'Giselle' With the Fervor of YouthBy ANNA KISSELGOFFPublished: July 25, 1990
Dramatically, a stunning performance came from Sian Stokes as Myrtha, the queen of the wilis. Her first solos were danced with somewhat free-form shapes, but her acting was brilliant. Like any good vampire, she cringed in pain at the power of the cross. A wonderful new touch was her snarling fury when dawn broke and Albrecht escaped her grasp.
By Nancy Goldner, Inquirer Dance CriticPosted: July 25, 1990
The Wilis' dancing lived up to that wonderful introduction.The long grand pas of the Wilis, often most notable for its length, was here most notable for its grandeur, and accumulating energy. This exciting effect was due to the unusually demonic force of Sian Stokes, who danced Myrta, queen of the Wilis, and again to Lanchbery and his indefatigable style
