Maryon Lane
Maryon Lane (15 February 1931 – 13 June 2008) was a South African ballet dancer who became well known in England as a ballerina of the Sadler's Wells Theatre Ballet and as a soloist with the Royal Ballet.〔Horst Koegler, "Lane, Maryon," in ''The Concise Oxford Dictionary of Ballet'', 2nd ed. (Oxford University Press, 1982).〕 ==Early life and training== Maryon Lane was born as Patricia Mills in Zululand, a district of Natal province (now KwaZulu-Natal) on the Indian Ocean coast of South Africa. When she was about 13 years old, in 1944, her family took her to Johannesburg, in the northern province of Transvaal (now Gauteng). There she studied with the best ballet teachers in the city, including Marjorie Sturman, a specialist in the Cecchetti method, and Reina Berman, who had been trained by Cecchetti principles before switching to the syllabus of the Royal Academy of Dancing (RAD).〔Marina Grut, ''The History of Ballet in South Africa'' (Cape Town: Human & Rousseau, 1981), p. 183.〕 In 1946, soon after World War II had ended and peace had returned to Europe, Mills left South Africa and immigrated to England, having won an RAD scholarship to attend the Sadler's Wells Ballet School in London. After only a year's tuition there, she was taken into the ''corps'' of the Sadler's Wells Theatre Ballet. It was at this point that she adopted her professional name. The company then included a South African dancer named Patricia Miller, so a name change from Patricia Mills was essential: Maryon Lane, distinctively spelled, was her choice.〔Mary Clarke, "Maryon Lane, Prima Ballerina with Sadler's Wells," obituary, ''The Guardian'' (London), 3 July 2008.〕
