Vienna’s State Opera ballet director, French Manuel Legris, gives a press conference to unveil the 2011-2012 season program at the Staatsoper on April 27, 2011 in Vienna. A protege of the late Rudolf Nureyev — who as director of Paris Opera Ballet named the Frenchman an “etoile” in 1986, Legris has said he was moved to follow in the footsteps of his mentor, who long had a special relationship to the Vienna ballet.
