  1. abatt you are right, i also have same thoughts.

    Huck, I don't think Sarafanov was scheduled to come to NY with the Kings. Kings tours to many different cities, with varying cast members. You mentioned the highlight of the program. Without a doubt, Vasiliev was thrilling. Sadly, most of the rest of the program was garbage. Instead of Kings of Dance, it shoud have been called Kings of Twitch. Most of the dancers' solos consisted of odd hand, head and arm twitches. There was very little actual dancing going on. David Hallberg was made to look foolish by Nacho Duato's choreography as he pranced around the stage in a big skirt, which he sometimes threw over his head to show us his underpants. Oh, and did I mention that sometimes David put the hem of the skirt in his mouth? Guillame Cote's solo was even more tedious, as he twitched his arms and hands for what seemed like an eternity. Denis Matvienko twitched while rolling on the floor. Gomes did a dopey solo that at least had a few minutes of actual dancing. I feel like I was pickpocketed by Mr Danilian. There must have been a memo that went out to the choreographers instructing them to create inane, simplistic choregraphy so that the dancers wouldn't get injured. Thank goodness Vasiliev's choreographer (DeBana?)was the one and only choreographer who took full advantage of the marvelous technical abilities of King Vasiliev. What a major disaster and waste of money and time.
