Begona Cào, dancer with English National Ballet waits in the wings, on the left, before making her entrance, on the right. These photographs were taken during her second performance of English National Ballet’s production of Manon at the London Coliseum theatre. When I spoke to her about her debut performance she said she had cherished every moment and it was what she had been waiting for from the start of her career. What impressed me was that no nerves got in her way. She just enjoyed every moment.
More of Begona and the whole of the production can be seen in my Photoshelter gallery.
