Women tend to have a longer career than men. Mrs margot Fantine is still an international ballet star at the age of 60 (she starred in the Australian Ballet's merry widow at the age of 58). On 196 1, Marilyn Jones was promoted to be the head of the Grand Ballet du Marquis de Cuevas, and joined the Australian Ballet on 1962.
197 1 left the stage to take care of the children, 1975 rejoined the Australian Ballet, 1979 took up the management position of the dance company. Even after retirement, she occasionally participated in dance company performances as a guest artist until 2009. So what I want to say is that the artistic life of professional dancers can last for a long time.
Professional characteristics of dancers:
Dancers are probably the most "taciturn" of all the actors in the arts. Actors in traditional Chinese opera, drama and Quyi are mostly lively and humorous, and they can bring laughter wherever they go. Even the most dignified and exquisite "boudoir" in Kunqu Opera can still deal with it freely in life, and will not really be "reserved" to say nothing. The real "silence is golden" is the dancer.
With the growth of age and injuries, the professional life span of many dancers is shorter than that of ordinary industries. On this arduous and long artistic road, they express their words and write their youth with their own bodies.
