Notes
Original Toronto Star caption: Guest Star Rudolph Nureyev; seen here with Dame Margot Fonteyn; gets lion's share of critic's blame. When he dances in Swan Lake; choreography is altered to suit his caprices. His weltschemertz emoting and his bad partnering of Dame Margot Fonteyn were described as calamitous.
