She looks as cool and polished as a 1940s glamour queen, but Alexandra Ansanelli presents a baffling contradiction. The raven-haired American star of London's Royal Ballet, healthy, uninjured and in the prime of an extraordinary career, is doing what virtually no ballerina in her to-die-for position does -- especially not in a recession. The 28-year-old is about to give it all up.
Tomorrow will be Ansanelli's last U.S. performance. The former New York City Ballet principal, celebrated for her athletic daring in that company's George Balanchine repertoire, will perform a radically different work here: Frederick Ashton's heated one-act drama, 'A Month in the Country.' On Thursday, Ansanelli goes back to London, though the Royal Ballet, which opens tonight, continues its run at the Kennedy Center Opera House through Sunday. She'll pack up her flat and prepare for her last performance ever, next month in Havana, where, with the same Ashton ballet, she will say goodbye to a 13-year career that in many ways you could call enchanted -- or deeply shadowed.
