Amour Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Macauley has the highest praise for the PDD with Tiler Peck and Tyler Angle. Finally, he got it right. http://www.nytimes.com/2015/06/04/arts/dance/review-new-york-city-ballet-with-heartfelt-pas-de-deux-in-a-midsummer-nights-dream.html?ref=dance Link to comment
abatt Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Tiler Peck and Tyler Angle certainly deserved the highest praise for the pdd. The pdd in this ballet was one of the great roles danced by Wendy Whelan and Jock Soto. Wendy was always ethereal in it. Recently Tiler has been cast in a lot of Wendy's old roles, and I have been skeptical. TIler's performance in this role was the first time that I felt Tiler Peck met or exceeded the level of Wendy's prior performances. Link to comment

canbelto Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 Faye Arthurs' blog is a fantastic blog in general. She's opinionated, insightful, knowledgable, and curious about all forms of art, and not only ballet. I love it. Link to comment
