I’ve also heard that they are not planning to renew his contract, but I’ve never heard anything about Svetlana Zakharova replacing him afterwards. it could be true, since she’ll be 37 in 2016, which is nearly the retirement age for ballet dancers, but I don’t think so; usually men are appointed as heads of ballet companies in Russia. I actually heard Nikolai Tsiskaridze will replace him, and, imo, that’d be more than great.
But if Tiskaridze will be gone,who will be the pricipal at vaganova?
Uliana Lopatkina. I’ve heard they’ve actually been discussing this variant.
