  Andros On Ballet
Emma Livry (1842 -1863) was the newest star of the Paris Opera.
Livry refused to have her costume flame retarded because it caused the material to turn yellow and stiff.

Livry's letter for the benefit of non-French readers who might otherwise have missed this gem.
I must correct her on one point: maître-chanteur means "flmailer," a locution Livry uses not quite correctly in the feminine (I know exactly whom he has in mind).
It quickly becomes evident why Livry got the boot at the Sorbonne: he is not normal, he is not logical, and he is politically bizarre.

 PeoplePlay UK - Emma Livry statue
Emma Livry was a young French ballerina, and protege of the greatest of the Romantic dancers, Marie Taglioni.
Born in 1842, Livry trained at the Paris Opera, and then under Marie Taglioni, who saw in her the ethereal lightness for which she herself was famous.
It was possible to fireproof fabric, but Livry, like many dancers, did not like this as it made the fabric stiff and thus less ethereal on stage.

By the time Marie was 10, her maternal grandparents were dead, and her education was supervised by a maternal uncle, the Abbe de Livry, who also acted as her mentor and financial advisor for the next fifty years.
During their six years of marriage, the couple divided their time between Paris and their Brittany home, and a daughter and a son were born.
