Oh no, it is fun but you are right( almost always).

If promoted, she will be.BTW, Filipino(a)-American is the term that is usually used. As of now, she is the 1st Fil-Am soloist of ABT. I don't know if it is known that Anthony Huxley is the 1st Fil-Am principal of the NYCB. His maternal father(or grandfather?) was a very prominent political figure in the Philippines.

Is that a fact? I could not believe that professional artists would feel that way of other artists even if they feel that they are better than them.

Any reports on the Murphy-Hammoudi-Baca Swan Lake?

That is so surprising. No wonder, there is almost always something missing in the way American ballerinas dance. Should American schools import Russian or European teachers to correct this?Just wondering.

Talking of upper body pliancy, why doesn't American ballet school emphasized this in their training?

In her ABT bio, it is mentioned that after moving to the USA at the age of 8, she trained at the Rock school in Philadelphia for 7-8 years.

Birthday Offering would just be perfect for the anniversary season and it has several beautiful variations to challenge the women of the company.

I thought Paulina was one of the shorter corp member.

Who was the corp dancer Rothbart was trying to seduce? she seems amused to his attentions.

I might be mistaken but last year, Corey was just coming back after a severe injury.

I'm also curious about talented NYCB corp members who have not risen from the corp. Do they leave the company and go somewhere else? MCB/PNB?

Keep on dreaming...

A Scott deserved a promotion a long time ago. He is like a male Abrera-Lane, totally neglected. I have never seen him do a bad performance in any of his solo roles.

YES! the addition of PDD in the Mixed program would probably improve the attendance to these programs. We can also see PDD that are rarely seen here( Esmeralda,Talisman, Diana and Acteon etc)

I would even let him change ABT to Koch Ballet Theatre, if he would change AD and hire 2-3 coaches/ teachers/stagers to coach the entire company.

It will be a Zurich ballet- La Scala coproduction. They will probably want to have exclusive rights to it for a while.

The 2015 season will be over in 3 weeks. Maybe, it's time to think of next year's wishes/predictions. After the success of A Ratmansky's SB, i wish for his Munich production of Paquita. Also Ashton's La Fille, Rhapsody and/or Two Pigeons.

It is good to know JKO school is producing very promising graduates after all. S Brandt and S Baca had most of their training at JKO too.

Holding our breath for the next two acts. Thanks Natalia.

Any news on the fall season? They are usually announced in the mid-Met season.

If KM does not like to give RAJ to Sarah, how about being bold and cast Cassandra Trenary as Juliet. Just wishful thinking.

Surprisingly, i was able to watch the whole performance in Culturebox website. Aurelie Dupont was wonderful.

Another reason for a change in AD.

There is no basis for this but i have a feeling that there would be a change at the end of this season or year (wistful thinking ).
