Early life and training

Magri was born and raised in Brazil. When she was eight, she received a scholarship to train at Petite Danse School in Rio de Janeiro. When she was sixteen, she won the Senior Age Division of the Youth America Grand Prix and the Prix de Lausanne Scholarship and Audience Prize in 2011.[2][3] Though her teachers encouraged her to train in the United States, she chose to go to The Royal Ballet School in London. Magri, who was trained in the Vaganova method, had to adjust to British ballet.[1]

Career

In 2012, at age 17, Magri was offered a contract to join the company.[1] She was named First artist in 2015, Soloist in 2016 and First Soloist in 2018. She has danced roles such as Kitri in Don Quixote, Gamzatti in La Bayadere, Mitzi Caspar in Mayerling and Lescaut's Mistress in Manon.[2] In June 2020, in the first series of performance since the Royal Opera House's closure due to the 2019-20 coronavirus pandemic, which was broadcast online, Magri and Matthew Ball performed an extract from Christopher Wheeldon's Within the Golden Hour, after learning the pas de deux in five days.[4]

gollark: Yes, indeed.
gollark: > > There's also a few snippets of code on the Android version that allows for the downloading of a remote zip file, unzipping it, and executing said binary> so here's the thing, TikTok as an app, continuously downloads files i.e video files, it's kinda the whole point. there's nothing "odd" about being able to download and extract zip files, the odd thing is delivering executables via zip. however, this is a non-issue and honestly a red herring, why?This is irrelevant. Yes, downloading video files is normal, downloading extra code which might be doing whatever (subject to sandboxing, at least) is not.
gollark: It could record locally and upload later, though.
gollark: This person apparently reverse-engineered it statically, not at runtime, but it *can* probably detect if you're trying to reverse-engineer it a bit while running.
gollark: > > App behavior changes slightly if they know you're trying to figure out what they're doing> this sentence makes no sense to me, "if they know"? he's dissecting the code as per his own statement, thus looking at rows of text in various format. the app isn't running - so how can it change? does the app have self-awareness? this sounds like something out of a bad sci-fi movie from the 90's.It's totally possible for applications to detect and resist being debugged a bit.
