	NationMaster - Encyclopedia: Bronislava Nijinska
		Nijinskaâs use of pointe was a milestone, not merely in that Les Noces was the first Diaghilev ballet in which all woman dancers wore pointe shoes, but also in that it asserted the adaptability of pointe as a means of expression.
		Nijinska was the responsible one - she graduated at the top of her class, and she often did her brother's homework for him or tried to smooth over conflicts with teachers and school officials.
		Nijinska was assistant and go-between, coaxing dancers to work with her brother, persuading Diaghilev that this new choreography was worth supporting, and assuring Nijinsky of his genius when his confidence lagged.

	B.co Kirov Ballet Review
		The Kirov production, on the other hand, has its source in an Oakland Ballet production in 1981 by Bronislava Nijinska's daughter Irina, which supplemented an earlier version of the Royal Ballet's score with notes left behind by the choreographer, and with Irina's memories of her mother's ballet.
		Nijinska insisted on very characteristic positions of the arms; they were held in check - bent elbows with clenched fists.
		For the Kirov to bring an alternative Les Noces to the very theatre in which Bronislava Nijinska so wonderfully restored it was a highly symbolic act, and one of breathtaking confidence.
