Svetlana Zakharova and Roberto Bolle in a vividly Milanese L’histoire de Manon

Jade graduated in political sciences then studied Russian civilisation. Conservatoire-trained in classical music in her early years, she also took ballet classes and still stands at the barre in Paris. A devout balletomane, she writes for French ballet medias and carries out researches on Russian ballet and politics. Her interests range from 19th-century Russian ballet to sovietic choregraphy, as well as neoclassical narrative ballets. She particularly enjoys watching ballets at the Bolshoi.
