This is a fascinating story about a little Polish girl
who moved so constantly and fluidly her nurse called her
"Quicksilver". She became a dancer, of course...
something had to be done to keep her in one place!

The dancer came to London and began to teach, then
started a small ballet company to give her students
performing experience. Eventually the Ballet Rambert

Mercury would become one of the most revered figures
of twentieth-century ballet.
