Zenaida Yanowsky in The Rite of Spring, The Royal Ballet, November 2013. © Dave Morgan.MacMillan’s 1962 Rite alters its impact with the choice of sacrificial victim. Zenaida Yanowsky accepts her fate, like a suicide martyr, instead of flailing frantically to the end. She submits in a trance, exalted as the embodiment of her people’s collective will. Her death is less shocking as a result. -- source link
