What kind of tutu is that flat, yellow one at 2:47?
I’ve seen it everywhere, I think it’s haunting me!
The last comment that “….. the tu-tu will continue to dazzle us for a long time yet….” is hopefully true for The Australian Ballet, but alas not for some of the UK companies – I have heard negative comments about the beloved and wonderful tu-tu from two leading UK companies, on saying that they don’t make ballets that need tu-tus any more. I might emigrate to Australia if tu-tus fall out of fashion in ballet here in UK.((((
