Lucy Balfour, of Christchurch, delivers consistently dynamic and spirited performances. Her portrayal as the hardened diva in The Celebrated Soubrette was internationally acclaimed - The Australian declaring Lucy "wonderful", a sentiment echoed by the San Francisco Chronicle.
In The Wedding the NZ Herald described her as "effervescent". Her recent featured roles include Angie in The Wedding, Banderillero, Verge and A Million Kisses to My Skin, The Chosen One in Milagros, and Lucy Westenra in Dracula. Classically trained, Lucy graduated from the International Ballet Academy in Christchurch in 2002.
Last year the NZ Herald hailed her performance in TOWER Tutus On Tour. “Lucy Balfour was her usual powerhouse of perfect technique and presence in Equilibrium and shows she is also a ballerina at heart in the opening Pas De Quatre". Most recently Lucy toured to China with the Royal New Zealand Ballet performing in Cinderella and the triple bill Trinity.
