GENIUS+GENIUS+GENIUS - By: Arthur Wyatt, 14 Dec 2008 
The genius of Beatrix Potter + the genius of Sir Frederick Ashton + the genius professionalism & sensitivity of the Roal Ballet setin the Lake District make this an outstanding item! Familiar themes from Paquita, Don Quixote & other 19th Century ballets. The young these days are exposed to a lot of violence & rubbish - what an antidote! Have purchaced five copies for various people. Don't worry (other reviewer)the Royal Ballet are still on top form, & may be at their all time best. Watch out for Tamara Rojo & some of the others!
Sheer Ballet Magic! - By: Amanda M, 02 Nov 2007 Absolute magic! I saw this as a child & it inspired me into career of dance. As a child, I adored to watch it & try to imitate the characters. Frederick Ashton's choreoegraphy brings the animals to life with imagination & fun. In the early 70's The Royal Ballet wasin it's glory days with dancers like beautiful Leslie Collier, Wayne Sleep & Michael Coleman: who's Pas De Chat-ing Jeremy Fisher I'll never forget, dancers filled with style, creativeness & that tremendous RB technique. This is a joy, something to have on the shelf for any ballet fan or budding ballerina. Enjoy!
