“Polina is a ballerina of such quality and grace, the kind of dancer that makes everything she does so special, a great role model to follow. She has cultivated a string of awards and an extensive career that has led her to perform with the major opera houses of the world. I’m thrilled that she will dance with Birmingham Royal Ballet and that British audiences will have a rare chance to see her dance live. Having her in BRB’s Swan Lake will enrich the perspective of our dancers and ultimately will inspire them.”

The Moscow born, Bolshoi Ballet School trained ballerina was hired as a principal dancer with Ballet of the Staatsoper Unter den Linden at the age of 17, immediately upon graduating. Since then, aside from her time at ABT, Polina Semionova has also been a Principal Guest at the Mikhailovsky Theater St. Petersburg and at the Bavarian State Ballet Munich.

She has danced the range of classical repertoire along with the contemporary works created on her by the leading choreographers of the past few decades.

Along with the run at the Birmingham Hippodrome, Birmingham Royal Ballet will also tour their production of Swan Lake to other UK theatres during the first quarter of 2023: Southampton Mayflower, Birmingham Hippodrome, The Lowry, Salford, Sunderland Empire, Theatre Royal Plymouth and Edinburgh Festival Theatre.
