Search The Nureyev Database by entering key words – for example, a ballet title, a venue, a company or the name of one of Nureyev’s partners. The search results will include all the information we have been able to input to date. You can filter these results by Performance, Work and Role.

The Nureyev Database is built on the chronology complied by Marilyn J La Vine (1931-2009), a dance enthusiast and one of Nureyev’s loyal fans, who followed his performances around the world. The Nureyev Database is a work in progress, with work ongoing to update and expand the data. It currently includes all known role debuts by Nureyev from 1970 to the end of his performing career, as well as some performances from earlier years. Please contact us if you can help ensure this unique resource is accurate and complete.
