Zenaida Yanowsky in Will Tuckett’s Elizabeth, Royal Ballet, January 2016. © Dave Morgan.Tuckett is evidently not trying to evoke Elizabethan dance but to express the monarch’s inner woman. On formal occasions, Yanowsky stands with her feet crossed in fifth position, arms extended stiffly at her sides above her court dress. On her own, she sheds her garments and moves freely, swiftly changing direction in arabesques or chains of rapid bourrées. -- source link
