Hans Posted August 6, 2003 Share Posted August 6, 2003 Which Dead Ballet Choreographer Are You? Find out by clicking here: http://quizilla.com/users/bquiz/quizzes/Wh...%20Are%20You%3F I am able to edit the quiz, so criticisms are welcome . Link to comment
Alexandra Posted August 6, 2003 Share Posted August 6, 2003 Hans, that is absolutely brilliant -- it deserves its own thread. Hang on a minute, and I'll give it one. Bravo!!!! Editing to add: You took it down when I was moving the topic -- put it back fast! It was PERFECT I laughed out loud at least a dozen times. Link to comment
Hans Posted August 6, 2003 Author Share Posted August 6, 2003 Hm...it seems that Quizilla refuses to put up the revised version, so the one above will have to do for now. So, which dead ballet choreographer are you, Alexandra? (As if I need ask ;) ) Editing to say Never mind! I just clicked on the above link and it worked. Link to comment
Alexandra Posted August 6, 2003 Share Posted August 6, 2003 Actually, I'm abstaining from taking the poll. It was much more fun reading it and figuring out who you meant for each answer! Editing to add: I couldn't resist. I ended up being Fokine, I think because my very favorite answer option is "put them back into repertory!" Link to comment
Mme. Hermine Posted August 6, 2003 Share Posted August 6, 2003 I beg your pardon, Ms. T., but I'll have to change my sign in name to read M. Petipa.... Link to comment
Giannina Posted August 6, 2003 Share Posted August 6, 2003 Oh, nuts; I hit the wrong button and didn't get to see the other possible results. Does anyone know what they are? F. Ashton (Isn't that nice!) Link to comment
Alexandra Posted August 6, 2003 Share Posted August 6, 2003 Very nice, G Perhaps we could hold on posting all the possibles until more people have taken it, so as not to spoil it for them? If everyone hasn't been "outed" within a day or two, then maybe Hans could post those as yet undiscovered Link to comment
Petra Posted August 6, 2003 Share Posted August 6, 2003 I too am Frederick Ashton My computer snag came when I tried to rate the quiz (giving it high marks, of course) and was informed that someone at my IP had already rated the quiz???? Link to comment
Hans Posted August 6, 2003 Author Share Posted August 6, 2003 I don't know why that happened. But thank you for intending to rate it well . Link to comment
Funny Face Posted August 6, 2003 Share Posted August 6, 2003 I won't be giving anything away in terms of choices because I scored the same as you, Alexandra. Wish there were one for living choreographers. Link to comment
Alexandra Posted August 6, 2003 Share Posted August 6, 2003 Here at BALLET ALERT we anticipate your every desire Watch for a Living Choreographers Quiz coming up next week..... Link to comment
carbro Posted August 6, 2003 Share Posted August 6, 2003 :shhh: . . . but I'm FA, too. At least when I answered "honestly" Also had trouble registering my rating. Is there a homepage on which to sign in? If so, it isn't linked on the "Which Choregrapher" page. When I answered with extreme prejudice and deviousness , I was Mr. B., just as I hoped. :party: Link to comment
Alexandra Posted August 6, 2003 Share Posted August 6, 2003 Gosh, carbro, what does that tell you? I sense you're aesthetically conflicted I had no trouble rating (gave it a 5, Hans Link to comment
Hans Posted August 6, 2003 Author Share Posted August 6, 2003 You can go to http://www.quizilla.com --that's the main site. Thank you, Alexandra! Link to comment
Mme. Hermine Posted August 6, 2003 Share Posted August 6, 2003 :grinning: Of course, now the question could be, "Will the REAL George Balanchine please stand up?" which could lead not only to a new quiz but a great debate! Link to comment
carbro Posted August 6, 2003 Share Posted August 6, 2003 Gosh, carbro, what does that tell you? I sense you're aesthetically conflicted Either that, Alexandra, or perhaps I am extremely, extremely versatile and the Genius Choreographer of the 20th Century. Link to comment
Alexandra Posted August 6, 2003 Share Posted August 6, 2003 That's it! Ms. Ultima Fusion! Link to comment
carbro Posted August 6, 2003 Share Posted August 6, 2003 Carbro Ashtochine to my friends. Link to comment
Farrell Fan Posted August 6, 2003 Share Posted August 6, 2003 I answered somewhat deviously, too, so that I'd turn out to be Balanchine. Has anyone heard of any plans for my centennial? Link to comment
Hans Posted August 6, 2003 Author Share Posted August 6, 2003 Oh, come on--answer honestly! And about that centennial...you don't want to know Link to comment
Funny Face Posted August 6, 2003 Share Posted August 6, 2003 I wish I hadn't been so darned honest, because if I'd been George Balanchine, I'd be one step closer to his choreographic protege, Jacques D'Amboise, the one I REALLY identify with because 1) of his fantastic work with children; 2) his climbing the Appalachian Trail (I'm a walking/hiking addict and love the outdoors); and 3) his using the beautiful and talented Janet Eilber in his production with the kids (I once played the same role she did in the play "Romantic Comedy"). Yes, yes, I digress, that's what I do. Link to comment
Mel Johnson Posted August 6, 2003 Share Posted August 6, 2003 I ended up as Fokine, too! I can just hear Vitale Mikhailovitch now, "Haw, haw, haw - I knew dere was some reasson I liked ya!" Link to comment
Pamela Moberg Posted August 6, 2003 Share Posted August 6, 2003 Most odd, I ended up as Petipa! I have always felt more like a Fokine man... Link to comment
Old Fashioned Posted August 6, 2003 Share Posted August 6, 2003 Awesome quiz, Hans! I'm definitely putting this on my website. I picked all the choices that I thought would apply to Mr. B and ended up being him... Now I'll go back to see who I'm really like. Link to comment
