“Sergei Polunin Surprises Guests“ Sergei Polunin / Сергей Полунин

Unbeknownst to the patrons at a Milan 2016 Fashion Week show, Sergei Polunin was about to bring down the house. Beauty, power, angst... it was glorious. Music: “Daylight (Pon II)“ by Kai Engel, and you can find it here: Sergei Polunin is the dancer who starred in Hozier’s viral video, “Take Me To Church“ but his fame is far greater than just that. One day, he will be legendary. Born in Kherson, Ukraine in 1989, Sergei Polunin / Сергей Полунин is a Russian ballet dancer. Famous for his “once every hundred years” talent, he has incredulous elevation and impeccable technique. From an early age, he displayed glorious dramatic range. Home videos of him as a small boy improvising to Pavarotti are very foretelling. At age 19, he became the youngest ever male principal dancer with London’s Royal Ballet company.
