According to the official website of Sadler’s Wells London’s Dance, Romanian ballerina Alina Cojocaru launched the fundraising for the Bucharest Hospice Appeal through her first gala for Hospices of Hope in May 2008, which was a sell-out performance. For the same foundation, the ballerina has now offered to provide another unique evening on May 12, at Sadler’s Wells Rosebery Avenue, London.

An evening of artists celebrating the past, present and the future, with highlights from the classical repertoire alongside new or rarely seen pieces including choreography by Marius Petipa, John Neumeier, Tim Rushton, Johan Kobborg and others will entertain the public.

Among the internationally renowned dancers joining Alina Cojocaru will be English National Ballet Principals Daria Klimentova and Vadim Muntagirov; Steven McRae, Johan Kobborg, Frankie Hayward and James Hay from The Royal Ballet; Thiago Bordin from the Hamburg Ballet; Xander Parish from the Mariinsky Ballet and violin virtuoso Charlie Siem will also take to the stage. The orchestra for this evening of entertainment will be another old friend of Hospices of Hope, Manning Camerata.
