Joseph Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 My friend has asked that I put this website up which is a promotion for a calendar starring Angel Corella and the men of ABT. I do not know if this allowed (to post links, I mean) but it is worth a shot. Check it out when you get a chance. I believe the calendar will be available in September 2004.

Leigh Witchel Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 Wow, they sure aren't wearing much, are they? Link to comment
oberon Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 Wrong company! Shoulda been JOCK SOTO & THE MEN OF NYCB!! Link to comment
Juliet Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 Well, they're wearing more than dance belts. You'd expect jammies, maybe? (This isn't Mark Morris Dance Group..... ) Link to comment
Leigh Witchel Posted August 11, 2004 Share Posted August 11, 2004 Dunno, maybe the occasional ballet costume (seeing that they are in fact ballet dancers) to break the monotony of tighty whitey shots? Hey, I haven't seen the calendar, it may not all be tighty whiteys. It just looks that way from the web site photos. But then again, skin sells. Link to comment
Amy Reusch Posted August 11, 2004 Share Posted August 11, 2004 Ummm.... just wondering... if it has the "American Ballet Theatre" name, is it done with the consent of ABT.... and if not, does that matter legally? Seems like if it were the men of "Microsoft" or "Pepsi" some lawyers would be making work for each other. If you sit on this page: http://www.abtcalendar.com/order.html long enough you will see thumbnails of the various month's photos... which are much more appealing (to me anyway) than the photos in "the making of..." section, which kind of leave you wondering just what kind of calendar this is supposed to be... (though I kind of like the one with the broken compact). Link to comment
Farrell Fan Posted August 11, 2004 Share Posted August 11, 2004 In case anyone is led to expect photos of Ethan Stiefel, Jose Manuel Carreno, Marcelo Gomes, et. al. in their undies, it should be pointed out that, apart from Angel Corella, "the men of ABT" are five corps members -- Buck Collins, Kenneth Easter, Jared Matthews, Patrick Ogle (aptly named for this purpose), and Danny Tidwell, and soloist Jesus Pastor.

Victoria Leigh Posted August 11, 2004 Share Posted August 11, 2004 Interesting It might have been a lot more fun with the "stars", however, for me I'm interested because of Kenny Easter. I taught him at Palm Beach Ballet Center from '88-'92. Choreographed several things for him during those years, and really enjoyed working with him. Link to comment
carbro Posted August 12, 2004 Share Posted August 12, 2004 And, according to his bio on the site, Buck Collins hails from my little (pop. approx 6500 when I left in '68) old hometown! Whoda thunk??? Link to comment
