She is not a good interviewer

Thank you Ballet circle for this opportunity to see this special interview with the amazing and lovely Vadim which I attended the first time and wanted to. See again as it is so interesting and best of all is Vadim's very heart felt thankyou to the audience , how much he appreciates our support of him, really so touching, such an incredible dancer and such a special person and his book is a page turner!❤❤

What a honorable and conscious artist Xander is! For that alone he deserves the best treatment from the world's top ballet companies, especially the Royal Ballet!

Casper lench was OUTSTANDING as Puck in the recent The Dream at ROH! Disappointed there are no clips available of that ballet!!

I had the honour of speaking to Vadim on a cold, dark night in November as I was walking to Covent Garden tube station. I had just attended an unforgettable performance of Mayerling and waited outside the Stage Door to catch a glimpse of my hero. There were so many people milling around and I was getting cold, so I took one blurry picture with my phone and left. As I approached the Tube station I was so shocked to see Vadim walking past me (holding many bouquets of flowers) that I gasped out loud and said, "Oh!! Vadim!!" He stopped immediately and turned around to face me. I stuttered and rambled (a combination of shock and old-age) and told him how much I had enjoyed the ballet and how I had just arrived the previous day from California. He was surprised at that and asked me the reason for my visit. I replied, "I came especially to see you!" He replied, "You came all that way to see me? That is incredible! Thank you so much!" He thanked ME -- and yet I just couldn't express to him how much I thanked HIM for the happiness he has brought me over the years, and what an amazing night I had had! We spoke for a few minutes, and then I realised how cold it was, and how heavy those flowers must have been. I told him he must go home and get some rest. He thanked me AGAIN for coming, and walked off to the tube station. No taxi -- he was taking the Piccadilly Line, as was I. I was careful to wait to use a different lift from his, as I didn't want him to think I was stalking him -- a woman of 76 could be scary! I didn't see him again that night, but I did get a book signed at the ROH the following year. Again, he was charming and polite, and grateful I had bought the book. I once saw a short video made in his early 20s, and he said he thought it was very important to be a "nice person". Well, Vadim, you are certainly a VERY VERY nice person! My thanks and appreciation to your parents, who obviously brought you up to work hard -- and always be kind.

What a lovely young man and a fine dancer. Thank you Vadim.

Thank you so much for such a fascinating interview. Alexander Parish has triumphed over the indifference of the Royal Ballet Now the War in Ukraine has meant he was obliged to take difficult decisions.that artists should not have to make.

Me encanta Laura ❤

Thank you for inviting this amazing guest! Olga was always the top student, even when little. There are videos of her in class.

Ольга, мы Вас любим, как и раньше! Русские любители балета есть во всем мире!

What an interesting discussion! Thankyou for giving these young,talented dancers an opportunity to share their stories.

Wonderful, exact change in the correct moment...she is the dance warrior against a diabolic invasion, Olga is my heroine, brave woman and amazing ballerina, those attacks made her greatest, TRUE is always indestructible and Olga´s inner light will never destructed, of course,🥰💐💐💐💐🌹 anybody could destroy it!, BRAVA

Olga and Chudin in the "kiss" scene from "Beauty." Amazing. I believed every second of it.

This is a very emotionally aware young dancer. Everything he says is about his feelings, his confusion at a different language, his learning from English National Ballet - and most of all, how fellow dancers treated him and welcomed him and made him feel at ease.

I yust whach this beautiful interview with Olga Smirnova and Graham I as very beautiful and interesting she is a diamond

Thank you very much

Наверно, Ксандер сто раз уже пожалел, что сбежал из Мариинки, хоть и не признается никогда в этом.. карьера закончена, увы.

Thank you Graham for not asking political questions regarding Olga's move to Dutch National Ballet. Those are quite sensitive questions and Olga has been asked them over and over for 2 years. Each time she did an interview and got asked those questions again I rolled my eyes. I'm sure that was a tough decision for her and we should all let her look ahead.

Balanchine's 'Emerald' is a charming variation and Smirnova is quite gorgeous ❤! Her dress, combination colours of black and medium electric blue, is chic and fashionable ❤. I quite like Smirnova ❤. Thank you @ London Ballet Circle for sharing ❤😊.

Wonderful interview with a wonderful dancer! If anyone is interested to learn more about the Perm ballet school: there is a fantastic book written by Monica Loughman, a former Irish ballerina. She trained in Perm in the 1990s from the age of 13 oder 14, graduated from the school and later joined the Perm Ballet Company. It is actually quite shocking how she describes the training methods in Perm.

3 minutes in, and the hosts are blah blah blah.

She is a champion of the west, for her stance on Putin.

Listening to Leanne's voice...one can hear Margot's voice as well. Haunting.

Great dancer and a thoroughly charming person.

He is so adorable! I can't believe the choreographers aren't queueing up, begging to choreograph on him. ❤

Brilliant to see this interview again and many thanks to London Ballet Circle for posting it. I was lucky enough to be there for the live interview and a wonderful evening it was; well worth the trip from Lancashire! Despite his amazing talent, Vadim comes over as a modest, unassuming, very hard-working young man, and long may he continue to delight us with his wonderful dancing. Can't wait to see him in Don Q at the start of the Royal Ballet's new season. The book too, is excellent. A great read and makes you realise how early all the hard work that goes into being a great classical dancer has to start.
