John Cranko engaged her for his Stuttgart Ballet in 1961 and made her prima ballerina one year later. Besides John Cranko many famous choreographers like Kenneth Mac-Millan, Maurice Bejart and John Neumeier worked with and for Marcia Haydee. She was a guest dancer in most renowned dance companies the world over and has danced with partners such as Rudolf Nurejew, Michail Barishni- kow, Paolo Bortuluzzi and Jorge Donn. In 1976 Marcia Haydee took over as directress of the Stuttgart Ballet. She kept this post for twenty years. She started a successful carrer as choreogra- pher in 1987. From 1992 to 1995 Marcia Haydee was also directress of the Ballet de Santiago de Chile.
