RIP Moira Shearer

Wow--I was just watching Tales of Hoffmann last weekend with my Dad, watching Moira as Olympia, wondering what she might be up to nowadays.

Moira was a great talent. Fellow ballerina babe/Red Shoes/Hoffmann co-star Ludmilla Tcherina died recently as well, about two years ago.

RIP Moira

Not being a dance fan, TRS and Hoffmann aren't among my fave Archers (and the Shoes' melodrama makes my eyes roll), but adieu Moira.
