abatt Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 This was in another thread regarding the musical Carousel, so I thought some people might have missed it. (Craig is presently a dance captain at Carousel. He is on leave from ABT.) Tonight is Craig's final performance with ABT. He is retiring from the company. Michelle Dorrance has created a tap solo for him in her new piece that will premiere tonight at the gala. Link to comment
ABT Fan Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 I saw this on the other thread. Very sorry that I'll be missing his farewell. Though he wasn't a pyro-technician I thought he was a great dancer with a strong, precise technique and a great stage presence. He was also a very good actor. I'll miss him. Link to comment
angelica Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 I will definitely miss Craig Salstein. Whatever he was dancing, he was always spot on. In particular, I remember his wonderful performance as Hilarion last year. I hope he'll continue to work at ABT, as a teacher or coach. Link to comment
stuben Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Will definitely miss Craig but hopefully he will be a guest or return as one of the ballet masters or teacher? Loved him in Fancy Free 😍 Link to comment
ABT Fan Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 Stella Abrera posted a touching tribute to Salstein on her Instagram this morning. Scroll through to see some nice pictures. Link to comment
