I like Makarova's comment in the article above: "it's not Dostoevsky."

Just read the sad news on the <A HREF="http://www.royalopera.org/ballet/index.cfm?ccs=173&cs=795">Royal Ballet website</A> that due to injury, Darcey Bussell has withdrawn from her performance this Saturday the 15th March. All the best wishes to Darcey for a speedy recovery.

She will be replaced by Tamara Rojo who will partner Roberto Bolle.

Darcey Bussell still injured
From the BBC website


Darcey Bussell is still undergoing treatment for an injured foot and will not perform in the Royal Ballet's production of The Sleeping Beauty on Saturday.
The principal ballerina had hoped she could return in time for the performance after she injured herself during the ballet's première last Saturday.

"She is not yet ready to go back on stage and is just taking each day as it comes," said a spokesman for the Royal Ballet.

Ballerina Tamara Rojo will take Bussell's place for Saturday night's performance.

Bussell was replaced for the last two minutes of the ballet's première by Marianela Nunez, though she managed to take the curtain call.
