The audience at the Turkish Ballet's performance on Thursday seemed to consists principally of members of London's Turkish community and distinguished choreographers. I really hope that the general British public were present in greater numbers at the other 2 performances.

Figen Phelps added a comment to my post about the Turkish Ballet; it seems I got my facts confused and the interview with Madam was made in 1996. I was probably not clear when writing my original comments, but all the dancers in the film were Turkish though they did interview one or two of the British teachers. Rather hearteningly, Figen confirms that the film is part of a longer documentary. So I look forward to seeing the full film.
