TWO PRINCIPAL ARTISTS RETIRE FROM THE AUSTRALIAN BALLET
The Australian Ballet has announced the retirement of two of its Principal Artists, Andrew Killian and Kevin Jackson, who both leave the company after long and highly successful careers.

He was made a Principal Artist in 2011 and went on to dance lead roles in countless ballets including Kenneth MacMillan’s Manon, both Stephen Baynes and Graeme Murphy’s Swan Lake, Graeme Murphy’s Romeo & Juliet, Peter Wright’s The Nutcracker and John Neumeier’s Nijinsky.
