Dunno if you're following POB news but José Martinez bless him has made good on his promise to announce casts early.

Inès McIntosh debuting as Clara in Nureyev's Nutcracker alongside Paul Marque this winter (her first leading role!!!)

Bleuenn Battistoni debuting as Lise in La Fille Mal Gardée next spring.

Personal fave Hohyun Kang debuting as Kitri alongside Pablo Legasa.

Guillaume Diop will debute as the Prince (in the Nutcracker) with Dorothée Gilbert, and as Colas with Léonore Baulac.

And in general lots of of premiers danseurs and sujets cast in leading roles which makes for an interesting season!

This is all super exciting, great to see big chances given to various rising stars! Hopefully all will go well! I also saw on insta that Inès McIntosh will debut Kitri as well? It's going to be a big season for her, her career is about to really take off.

I am happy that José Martinez is fulfilling his promise, it shows he has great confidence in his dancers - sometimes casting is withheld from the public because the management is unsure or as a way to influence dancers. Releasing the casting in advance is a much more holistic way of doing things in my opinion.
