  1. I attended Friday nights show i left after Square Dance. The performance started out with Ashley Bouder talking about the ballets we would be seeing . She also told us she had danced 2 Square dances since Spac started . She said tonight we will be seeing the lovely Erica Pereira who has wonderful Balanchine technique. Erica and Taylor were GREAT together. The core was equally Great. Except for 1 hick-up one of the core members got her feet tangled up causing her to slip and almost take Erica off her steps. Erica being the professional she is just kept count and stayed on point. The audience seemed to love the performance 2 curtian calls for Erica and Taylor and many SCREAMS from the audience of BRAVO AND BRAVA!!!!!. After the performance was over Erica was mobbed at the rear stage doors by many young FANS who were waiting for autographs and pictures. I was glad to see these future dancers can appreacate and enjoy Erica's talent.
  2. I respect your opinion but do you really think the ballet masters and Peter Martins would let Erica dance these parts if they felt she could not preform up to the standards of NYCB. I THINK NOT.
  3. Not a posed pic. This was taken during Romeo and Juliet seems to me she can jump
  4. Amour you seem to be saying that Ashley's and Tiler's injuries were caused by Bournonville stuff. And I have to disagree with you about Erica about to break down and cry. I was at that performance and she was under enormous pressure to deliver a performance in a ballet which she never danced as a core member. This was asked of her under VERY SHORT NOTICE!!! In my opinion she did an fine job with what she had to work with.
  5. Truer words were never SPOKEN Thank You!!!!!
  6. Glad to hear Erica was strong and confident. We have enjoyed watching Erica from when she did Square Dance in workshop at SAB. I think we will be seeing some wonderful and exciting dancing from her in the coming weeks.
  7. Thanks abatt for your post Anthony is one of my favorite male dancers with NYCB. We are hoping he gets promoted soon.
