Next up, Royal Ballet Principal dancer Marianela Nunez talks about beauty products and what she likes to use.
 

The Royal Ballet have uploaded a new podcast with, among other things, a chat with Principal dancers and real life couple Marianela Nunez and Thiago Soares, as they prepare for their Cinderella debuts.

New on iTunes U from the ROH - An introduction to Ballet; 12 tracks covering technique, notation, history and male dancing. Features Ursula Hageli (Ballet Mistress) and Giannandrea Posieo (Lecturer, Metropolitan University).
