Alina Cojocaru is happily scheduled to dance two La Bayaderes, two Romeo and Juliets and four Jewels.

* This year will also mark the 47th Anniversary of the first appearance of Frederick Ashton's Dancing Chickens ("La Fille Mal Gardee"). I do hope that the Royal Ballet has something really special planned. *
