Sarah Lamb and Viacheslav Samodurov in Romeo and Juliet (2008).
Luke Jennings (The Guardian) on comparing Lamb and the season’s other Juliet, Marianela Nunez:
'Lamb is a more detached performer than Nuñez and her Juliet more questioning of her situation. Her first reaction to Romeo is curiosity verging on suspicion, and she approaches their first dance together as if awed by her own daring. Where Nuñez makes light of the rivalry between the two families, Lamb knows exactly how dangerous a game she's playing. But the softening of her initially rather crystalline dancing and the growing amplitude of her phrasing tell us that she is already half in love and in the balcony pas de deux, she signals her surrender to destiny not with the rond de jambe but the plunging, fatalistic arabesque which follows it.'
