A young talent invited to dance for Les Ballets de Monte-Carlo
While creating The Taming of the Shrew for the Bolshoi Ballet in 2014, Jean-Christophe Maillot discovered Olga Smirnova, a young dancer who interpreted the role of Bianca that he had imagined for her wonderfully. Seduced by the grace, technique and freshness of the soloist, the choreographer then invited her occasionally to Monaco to dance roles from his repertoire created for Les Ballets de Monte-Carlo.

AS Monaco begins 2023 with a precious win against Brest!
Dominant for a long time in the first half, the Rouge et Blanc made the difference on their return from the locker room to finally win, logically, against Stade Brestois 29 (1-0). It’s the team’s second win in two games since the break, and their first in 2023.
It’s two from two! The AS Monaco players recorded a second win in a row this Sunday to start off 2023 at the Stade Louis-II, overcoming a well-organized Brest team, 1-0. These three latest points allow the teammates of Aleksandr Golovin, who scored the match’s only goal, to put pressure on the leading teams.
