Alina Cojocaru and Johan Kobborg in Manon, from The Royal Ballet Tour of Japan in 2013. © Kiyonori Hasegawa.Cojocaru moves with lightness and delicacy. But she never uses her formidable technique in a showy manner. There is always a reason behind an arabesque, a tiny stabbing movement of the foot on the ground, or a swirl of movement around her partner’s body. She too works to develop a persona for the character she is playing. Her Manon is all sweetness and light, playful and charming. -- source link
