Clytie Campbell
Clytie Campbell joined the RN ZB in September 2005, returning
from eight years dancing in Europe. Starting at the age of five,
her entire ballet training was at her mother's school, the Philippa
Campbell School of Ballet in Auckland. At 17, Clytie joined the
Deutsche Oper Ballet in Berlin where she danced for more than six
years, before moving to Wiener's Staatsoper Ballet.
Clytie has danced many lead roles with RNZB including Kitri in
Don Quixote, the Sylph in La Sylphide, Queen of
the Wilis in Giselle, the grande pas de deux in The
Nutcracker and Carabosse and the Lilac Fairy in The Meridian
Season of The Sleeping Beauty, and solos in esquisses,
silhouette and A Million Kisses to My Skin. Her role as
Lady Capulet in Romeo & Juliet was described as a
"knockout". Clytie received critical acclaim for her lead roles in
all three works in 2010's The TOWER Season of From Here to
There, which she also performed during RNZB's European Tour in
2011.
