Lesley-Anne Sayers is a dance historian with a particular interest
in set design and the visual arts. She studied dance at the
Laban Centre London after a first degree in drama. Her work

then further developed with post-doctoral study of its designer,

and 2003.
Her
model reconstruction of Yakoulov’s design for Le Pas d’Acier
