Mischievous Tales from Dancing Days: Konstanze Vernon's final Bosl-Matinee appearance

While the dancers frantically change into their next costume backstage, in front of the curtain Konstanze Vernon always had a good story to keep the audience amused. Filmed at her final Bosl-Matinee appearance in 2012, in this video Konstanze tells the story of how Heinz Bosl was kicked out of the studio for mistakenly imitating choreographer Glen Tetley and about her own infamous audition for Heinz Rosen that landed her the job with the Ballet Company of the Bavarian State Opera - later to be known as the Bavarian State Ballet.
