Good luck, oops Merde, at the Lincoln Center festival.
I was walking by LC this afternnon and saw a few dancers outside the NY State Theatre. Has DTH performed at lincoln Center before?

Good question, MJ.  And one I can't answer -- I hope one of our New Yorkers can.

And I hope someone will see this and report!

Several years ago DTH performed with NYCB in the same evening.  It was a special event and I only remember the Slaughter on Fifth Ave being performed although there was somthing else done.  We had a friend that was performing with DTH at the time and we went to see him.  As far as DTH performing solo at Lincoln Center I don't know.

DTH had a season at the Met about ten years ago.  They may have had another season there, too — perhaps someone else remembers.

Correctly me if I am wrong, I don't believe DTH ever performed at the Met.  It's not a huge company, it's rep doesn't require a huge stage.  The scale is all wrong for DTH performing at the Met.

However, DTH did have a 2-week season at the State Theater in March' 93 and a 3-week season in March' 94.

I can't answer the DTH at the Met question, but I can say:  :hyper:  Hello, mussel!  Welcome back!  Forgive me if I've missed a post of yours, but I don't think I've seen you in months!!  :bouncing:  It's very good to read you again.

They did, Mussel.  I saw them there in the early 90s, they did Stars & Stripes at a gala attended by, I think it was, Barbara Bush.  It was part of a one- or two-week season.
