He looks like a really young Nureyev, years before he went to seed.
There's a DanceChannelTV?
His Spartacus is the most menacing I've seen. Osipova is no slouch either - her Kitri is astonishing.
Wow! 'Fish in water' indeed.
He says he is Iron Man too.
I agree Bernice, Natalia Osipova is also amazing.
What a nice interlude ...
He's so leapy! It's almost enough to make me want to take up exercise.
