Ex Royal Ballet and K Company and a fine lyrical dancer with a sure technique, and a strong and generous partner, Gary is equally at home in the classical and contemporary repertoires. In addition, his stage presence and his exceptional talent for acting have allowed him to undertake demanding character parts from an early stage in his career. His ability to get under the skin of a character has enabled him to play, with total conviction, such diverse roles as Tybalt and Paris in Romeo and Juliet (especially his unforgettable performance as Paris to Sylvie Guillem’s Juliet with the Royal Ballet), Monsieur G.M. in Manon and Von Rothbart in Swan Lake.

Gary is that rare creature: an all-round artist.

Gary Avis leaves ENB at the end of the season to rejoin the Royal Ballet {Soloists}

A very talented prize winning French dancer who has risen rapidly through the ranks to soloist.

He moves like a gazelle, high extensions, beautiful jumps and lands softly. His Gopak in the Nutcracker is stunning. {Soloists}

A Spanish dancer who seems to have danced most principal roles but just not for ENB. She is no fragile fluttering ballerina, technically very strong and athletic. A nice Swanilda. {Soloists}

A tall, slim dancer with huge eyes who is absolutely radiant on stage. She was an innocent Giselle, and her soft, fluid style has won her a lot of admirers. {Soloists}

A tall,dark English dancer who has been categorised by the ENB regulars as 'Ballet beefcake' because of his physique and bearing. His Tybalt was a menacing thug with a taste for violence and his Gopak is stunning. {Soloists}
