1971 – Formation of New London Ballet under Galina Samsova and Andre Prokovsky

Down Arrow

New London Ballet was a classical company of 14 dancers formed by Galina Samsova and André Prokovsky that toured extensively in Britain and overseas with a repertory consisting mostly of newly created works. The company disbanded in 1977, owing to unmeetable demands of the Musicians’ Union in London, although it re-formed briefly again in 1979.
