“the performer who stood out most for me was Matthieu Pagés as Konstantin Levin. Still a corps member, Pagés brought a full-bodied, grounded quality to the role, blending contemporary movement with perfect technique and a warm, sincere presence that was quietly magnetic.”

Anna Karenina
“The great discovery of the evening was corps de ballet member Matthieu Pagès as Levin... Pagès’ solo variation in Act I was a highlight of the entire ballet, performed with sincerity and sensitivity”
