socalgal Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 If anyone knows the casting for NYCB's Orange County up and coming performances in Sept/Oct. I would love to hear! Thanks ! Link to comment
Leigh Witchel Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 Socalgal - that usually goes up at NYCB's web site the week prior to the performance. And sorry folks, no casting rumors. Link to comment
socalgal Posted September 2, 2004 Author Share Posted September 2, 2004 Thanks Leigh, I will check it out Link to comment
oberon Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 Which comes first, Orange County or Japan? Link to comment
tantris Posted September 4, 2004 Share Posted September 4, 2004 Well, the casting has just gone up for their Japan tour. It would be fair to say that similar appearances should be expected for the LA and OC County tours. Most conspicious is Woetzel's abscense and Soto's non-stop performances. Link to comment
carbro Posted September 4, 2004 Share Posted September 4, 2004 Well, the casting has just gone up for their Japan tour. It has? NYCB's site advises that casting for Japan tour will be available "week of September 13." Did it go up, then come down? Link to comment
Dale Posted September 7, 2004 Share Posted September 7, 2004 The inclusion of corps casting makes me think this is from a company member casting list. Tantris, did the company expect that you would release this to the general public? The official website notes that casting will be released on September 13th. However tempting you are finding this, please refrain from doing so in the future. Refer to our previous thread on gossip. Link to comment
Alexandra Posted September 7, 2004 Share Posted September 7, 2004 The post Dale refers to above was deleted (as was my post explaining why). Tantris, please check your email (the account with which you registered.) Thanks! Link to comment
tantris Posted September 7, 2004 Share Posted September 7, 2004 My apologies - I should have been better aware of the policies surrounding official vs. privy info. Wont happen again Link to comment

tantris Posted September 7, 2004 Share Posted September 7, 2004 Shame to see Albert so underused again... Link to comment
socalgal Posted September 7, 2004 Author Share Posted September 7, 2004 Thanks for the official casting for Japan tour. Can you tell by the cast listing for "Serenade" which roles will be danced by which of these female dancers? Link to comment
Alexandra Posted September 7, 2004 Share Posted September 7, 2004 In a grouping such as "Kistler, Borree, Kowroski," I'd read it as: Kistler -- girl who falls down Borree -- Russian Kowroski -- Dark Angel That was the way the casting was in DC last year, for Kistler and Borree, at any rate.

socalgal Posted September 18, 2004 Author Share Posted September 18, 2004 thrilled at the casting and the programs I am seeing....any BAniks going Wednesday, THursday and/or Friday evenings? I'll be there! Link to comment
Michael Posted September 18, 2004 Share Posted September 18, 2004 Congratulations Carrie Riggins. Since Bizet 4th movement is not marked as a debut for her, anyone remember where and when she danced this before? Link to comment
oberon Posted September 18, 2004 Share Posted September 18, 2004 There's some great casting here...Weese in SERENADE, Sylve & Hanna in the SYMPH IN C Adagio, Hanna in TCHAIKOVSKY PDD...and Carrie Lee, that is really good; hopefully we'll see them all in these roles in NYC eventually. Still no Neal or Somogyi, and very little of Damian. And where is my beloved Amanda Edge? Meanwhile a Japanese friend of mine has written that some of the Tokyo performances are sold out. Link to comment
Ari Posted September 18, 2004 Share Posted September 18, 2004 I'm confused by the casting for the matinee of Oct. 2nd. Don't Rutherford and Sylve both do the Verdy role in Emeralds? But they're both listed for this performance. A mistake or a debut? Link to comment
Dale Posted September 18, 2004 Share Posted September 18, 2004 I think Sylve is doing the Mimi Paul roll. It makes sense because Martins has been casting Sylve in the "glamour" rolls and the Paul roll is the one the glamour girls do now. Which roll did she do in Saratoga? Link to comment
GeorgeB fan Posted September 18, 2004 Share Posted September 18, 2004 Miranda Weese is making her debut in Serenade? I can't believe it! I was sure she would have already dance in this rite of passage ballet years ago. I am certainly looking forward to reading reviews of Sofiane Sylve performance in the second movement of Symphony in C. Does anyone have any information on Jennie Somogyi's recover from her injuries and how much longer she will be out? Looking at the casting of Serenade, Symphony in C first movement, Agon, Concerto Barocco and Tschaikovsky PDD, all roles she excel wonderfully in just makes me miss her even more ! Link to comment
Alexandra Posted September 18, 2004 Share Posted September 18, 2004 Sorry, GeorgeB fan, but no, there's no official word on Jennie Somogyi's injury or when she'll be back. There usually won't be; because recovery is so difficult to predict, often neither the dancer nor the company will want to answer a question like this, because the answer will be only a guess. Link to comment
oberon Posted September 18, 2004 Share Posted September 18, 2004 Yes, GBfan, it is a little surprising that Weese hasn't done that role in SERENADE before. Sometimes you just assume a dancer would have done a particular role and it turns out she hasn't. Like Wendy in BUGAKU...when she once mentioned it as a ballet she was anxious to do I was thinking, hasn't she already? But...no... Anyway, Miranda should be perfect in SERENADE and in a few years I hope she will "graduate" to the Kyra/Darci role...Ringer has already put her stamp on THAT role...and I would love to see Wendy do it again, I think I saw her only performance of it. Gitte Lindstrom, when she was guesting, was also memorable in that part. And I recall a rather rare appearance by Merrill Ashley. Link to comment
