abatt Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 In April, in conjunction with an exhibition of tapestries illustrating scenes from Don Q, the Frick will have 2 Salon Evenings hosted by Clinton Luckett regarding the ballet Don Q, including demonstrations by ABT dancers. Dates are Apr 10 and 11. No info on which dancers will appear. Tixs $40. http://www.frick.org/programs/salon_evenings (Note:The stage at the Frick is extremely small.) Link to comment
fondoffouettes Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 The Frick's most recent e-newsletter announces that Whiteside and Boylston will be appearing in this program, along with other, unnamed ABT Dancers. Clinton Luckett will provide commentary. http://us2.campaign-archive2.com/?u=527921a5191e7e5fbb0169520&id=1ba2936335&e=c2ab7dbe21 I believe for one of their other salon evenings (the one inspired by Degas), the dancers used the floor of the Music Room in addition to the stage. I imagine they may need to do so again. Link to comment
alexL Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Question: should I dress up for these salon events? I've never attended these events held in the Frick so I don't know... I know this question may sound stupid but I don't want to be embarrassed because of my attire! Link to comment

I know this question may sound stupid but I don't want to be embarrassed because of my attire! I'm guessing the crowd will skew towards business casual. I imagine it will be similar to the Frick's Wednesday evening lecture crowd, which consists mostly of people who have come directly from work. It's a mix of suits and business casual, with some casual-casual, as well. I'm not sure this is of much help, but I wouldn't worry too much of getting super dressed up. Link to comment

I'm relieved now Link to comment
