Mel Johnson Posted May 3, 2004 Author Share Posted May 3, 2004 Good for a start. Now look after the word, "Ballet".... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hans Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 It doesn't say "of Chicago." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mel Johnson Posted May 3, 2004 Author Share Posted May 3, 2004 Exactly right! I guess there must not be any more Joffrey Ballets floating around that need distinction from the one in Chicago. A welcome resumption of a traditional name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farrell Fan Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 There was a preview of this in the big Lincoln Center Festival 2004 brochure, where the company is called simply The Joffrey Ballet. I haven't seen them since they moved to Chicago, and I'm really looking forward to their July 8 program of Les Patineurs, Monotones I and II, and A Wedding Bouquet. They'll also be appearing on a couple of mixed bills with the Birmingham Royal Ballet and K-Ballet Company. Welcome back! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treefrog Posted May 5, 2004 Share Posted May 5, 2004 Interesting! It seems pretty consistent -- the two venues where they will be performing here have them listed simply as "The Joffrey Ballet". Any idea why this is? Did some legal statute of limitations run out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
