I was fortunate to see this lovely ballerina in Sleeping Beauty and Swan Lake with the PACT Ballet company in South Africa in the late 70s and early 80s. I still remember her performances in detail. A wonderful dancer with a compelling stage presence.
What a lovely surprise to see my best friend Maria @055 and @ 7:45 in the orange leotard! Maria has told me many times how Eva was her mentor and a dear, dear friend who was as sweet and gentle on the inside as well as the outside. Such a shame Eva is no longer here.
lovely eva l saw her dancing many times expecially with the tremendous peter schauffus and also saw her taking private lessons in 78 in the little studio of madame CLEO NORDI then the only still living dancer of anna pavlova company.
The most elegant and versatile dancer that I have seen. Her posture and build together with such a gorgeous neck. She floats beautifully, barely touching the floor. She died far too young. She should still be with us reflecting on her career. If only we knew where she is resting.
Nice to meet you. Cleo Nordi was incredibly kind and spiritual human being. I also met Alicia Nikitina one of the last baby ballerina's from Diagiliev era. Eva Evdokimova reminds me more of Russian style of ballerina.

Absolutely amazing artist and incredible ballerina.She is so refined almost spiritual in her movement. Gone so early.

I’ve seen her pictures in ballet books from my childhood but known little about her life and career . Thanks for sharing!
Саша Годунов и Ева Евдакимова- прекрасный дуэт!)

Oh my goodness I know Cleo Nordi. I met her in London when I was just starting out. I even stayed at her place.
