Last week at Miami's Dade County Auditorium, audiences were once again clapping for Margot Fonteyn in Sleeping Beauty. This time, however, Dame Margot, 66, had joined the cast of the 19th century ballet in the nondancing mime role of the stately Queen. The Sadler's Wells Royal Ballet production is currently touring North and South America, and Fonteyn agreed to do two Miami performances because it was not far from her home in Panama...
