no fewer than six lie in the wall (in jars of assorted
sizes). Dancing lightly over pogroms and other sordid
reorganizational measures, Eugenia has emerged as a
ballerina nonpareil whose pungency is indisputable.
ALLA SNIZOVA enjoyed great success as a baby
ballerina at the mere age of 9. Being a child prodigy, she
developed serious allergy problems and could only
perform short pieces. Known as the “little orphan,” Miss
Snizova joined the Trockadero on tour, appearing
cloaked in an enigma (complete with zip-out lining). A
consummate actress, she has danced the part of Little
Miss Markova and the title role of Glinka’s Popoy-the
Sailor Man.
OLGA SUPPHOZOVA made her first public appearance
in a KGB line-up under dubious circumstances. After a
seven-year-to-life hiatus, she now returns to her adoring
fans. When questioned about her forced sabbatical,
Olga’s only comment was “I did it for Art’s sake.” Art,
however, said nothing.
MAYA THICKENTHIGHYA’s radioactive properties
prevented her from appearing with the Trockadero until
her recent release from a special sanitarium on the
Black Sea. A brilliant virtuoso in the Moscow style,
Madame Thickenthighya’s torque was applied to the
running of Generator 14 near the Gorsky Dam during
the period of her political disgrace. She is, this season,
reinstated to her unique position in the ballet world.
MINNIE VAN DRIVER. Always running to rehearsals,
costume fittings and performances, Miss Driver has a
strong sense of movement. She has performed
worldwide and has a natural aptitude for touring.
Famous for her beautiful port de bras, she gives credit
to her many hours behind the wheel.
GUZELLA VERBITSKAYA. Guzella was born on a
locomotive speeding through the Ural Mountains. She
quickly realized the limitations of her native folk dancing
and quaint handicrafts. After her arrival in America, she
learned everything she now knows about ballet from a
seminar entitled: “Evil Fairies on the Periphery of the
Classical Dance.”
