This massively famous and glamorous Ballet Russes star of Russia and Europe was fired from his troupe by director Diaghilev and then forced to go on tour in the US to make money. According to records, he took a train-trip through Texas, putting on shows in Houston, Austin, Fort Worth, and San Antonio in 1916-17.
Screenplay to come. (If only I were clever enough to write it!)
