    I was thinking about comments about National Ballet of Canada and Australian Ballet and how limited touring was for companies that are funded as "national," and this article about National Ballet of Canada's plans to broadcast their Nutcracker across Canada on 22 December 07 might describe the beginning of a more equitable distribution of resources. Or at least give people outside the capitals and major cities a taste of the pie.

    It's hard for me to imagine that Kavanagh decided in a very long book to include ten extra pages of Nureyev's sex life in lieu of the aftermath of his death. She had a lot of access that others didn't. She had a book to write, and it's hard to think that access had no price. Despite the ego that can be read into "The Life" in the book's title -- although it can also be interpreted as a description of Nureyev -- I think the best we can do at this point is get a mosaic from many sources. Someone else will write about the aftermath, or perhaps eventually Kavanagh's will be like Taper's Balanchine bio, with a chapter added in subsequent editions. (Which, of course, would increase sales, as all of us who bought the hardback would have to buy the paperback for the additional material...) If not, then Kavanagh's book is a contribution to the picture.

    The Guest POB book is available from amazon.com, but at $39.95 (list), it's pricey. alibris.com's prices start at $35.96. It doesn't sound like it is what you are looking for, though.
  17. Helene
    I think Nureyev's celebrity is key to two issues in his life: would he have been as influential on the style of ballet dancers in the West had he not had the celebrity or exposure -- would fellow dancers have flocked to see him in Lausanne or Birmingham or Vienna or San Francisco and have tried to emulate him? -- and how much did celebrity help or hinder what he wanted to accomplish in his own dancing?

    I saw Matthew Bourne's "Nutcracker" in London a few years ago, and I thought it was good theater. It's hard to imagine how it would translate into screen, though, since a lot of its power, especially in Act I, was in the sets and costumes, which were most effective when three-dimensional.

    My deepest condolences to the Alexander and Bragado-Young families for their loss.

    Some or all of that may work.

    Very disappointing. Sleeping Beauty plays in London on 29 March (1:30pm), then the 3, 8, 10, 16, 18 of April, and May 5 (mat), 9, 10 (mat), 14. The Nureyev/Balanchine/Forsythe Program plays on April 4, 5, 8, 11, 15, 17, 21-24, 27-29 and on May 3, 4 (mat), 6, 8-9. The Serenade/Brandstrup/Homage to the Queen program plays 23, 25, 29 April, and May 1, 6, 8. The POB School Performances are on 12-14 April, and 19 April. It is possible to do SB, POB Triple Bill, POB School: Any of the following: SB: 10 April Nureyev/Balanchine/Forsythe: 11 April POB School: 12-14 Nureyev/Balanchine/Forsythe: 15 April SB: 16 April (I dont know when you're heading back for the Kirov) or: RB Triple Bill: 1 May POB Triple Bill: 3, 4 May (mat) Back to London: SB 5 May (mat) and Triple Bill 6 May There's no way to get in all four without overlapping the Kirov in NYC.
