balletmor Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 Just my Opinion, But I feel Like Sascha has "put in his time" with ABT. I do not not look at it as taking a part away from other dancers. So what if he left for a year. He is truly respected by his fellow ABT dancers and Im sure the majority will be welcoming him back with open arms! Link to comment
bart Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 I updated the title of this thread, to reflect the new ABT development. Please continue the discussion here. Link to comment
miliosr Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 Those fickle people behind New York Magazine's Approval Matix have thrown Adrian Danchig-Waring overboard for Sascha Radetsky: http://nymag.com/arts/all/approvalmatrix/58989/ Link to comment
Ambonnay Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 The current Pointe magazine has an article entitled "Radetsky Returns". Below are excerpts: -- "family obligatgions have brought him back to the U.S....." -- "When family illness brought me back to the States last summer, I realized how much I'd missed my wife, ABT soloist Stella Abrera. That separation was really tough. I'd missed ABT, as well." -- "I feel that the developments in my personal and professional life have given me a new sense of perspective these days.... Most of all, though, I'm looking forward to spending time with my girl. Being with Stella is more important than chasing roles over in Europe." Link to comment
theo Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Hello and Happy New Year to all BT members and readers. I am curious about the ABT website and the subject of Sascha. Supposedly, Sascha's return to ABT as a soloist was effective on Jan 01, 2010, yet I still don't see him posted in the soloist section of the website or anywhere else for that matter. If you see his name appear as a cast member for a particular performance however, you can click on his name and his old bio comes up?? In contrast, Simone Messmer's promotion (CONGRATULATIONS Simone!) was effective on the same date that Sascha's return was supposed to be, and her picture has been added to the appropriate section of the website and his has not. Anybody know why? Curious. Link to comment
Krystin Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 I have no information about Radetsky's bio not being added, but I did notice that Melissa Thomas' name has been removed from the roster of the corps. Link to comment
volcanohunter Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Radetsky hasn't completely severed his connection with the Dutch National Ballet. This month he's scheduled to dance three performances as Basilio in Alexei Ratmansky's new production of Don Quixote in Amsterdam. Link to comment
