Famous Faces

**Nicholas Georgiadis and Rudolf Nureyev at the Premiere of The Tempest on the 2nd of December 1982 in the presence of Princess Margaret.**

During his lifetime Nicholas Georgiadis worked with many talented and renowned people internationally and formed important collaborations with famous ballet choreographers and directors for opera, film and stage. He dressed some of the most famous names in ballet, opera and theatre and designed some of the most successful ballet productions of the Royal Opera House in Covent Garden and the Paris Opera that have endured the test of time and are considered masterpieces of the 20th century. These include Romeo and Juliet, Manon and Mayerling for the Royal Ballet and Casse Noisette, La Belle au Bois Dormant, Raymonda and Don Quichotte for Paris Opera Ballet. He also fostered a generation of younger theatre designers who became renowned in their own right and made long and successful careers for themselves.
