pugbee Posted December 8, 2003 Posted December 8, 2003 Can any of you tell me if you've seen Andrew Veyette in performance lately, or know of how he's doing? I remember he was so promising as a student (Wein award and all), but every time I look at casting on the website, I am disappointed not to see his name. Any news?
sneds Posted December 8, 2003 Posted December 8, 2003 Hi! My memory is getting a bit foggy, but I think Veyette didn't dance for a long while last winter & maybe spring 2002, and remember wondering if was sick or injured. However, he was dancing a lot last spring and summer!! I particularly remember him as part of the outstanding cast of 'Piano Pieces' and as one of the asses in Wheeldon's "Carnival of the Animals"! As for now, I don't see him on the cast list for any of the solo roles, but it's quite likely that he's dancing in just about every performance in the corps. There are so many talented male corps members right now, and only so many casts for each role. Cheers! Kate

pugbee Posted December 8, 2003 Author Posted December 8, 2003 Thank you both! These boards are such a wonderful way to keep tabs on old friends!
Dale Posted December 9, 2003 Posted December 9, 2003 Veyette is listed as doing Hot Chocolate this week.
ProudUncleof2 Posted July 9, 2007 Posted July 9, 2007 Just a quick update for those following Andrew. He has been promoted to Principal and here is a link to a review of a performance in Saratoga Springs with the company. http://www.poststar.com/articles/2007/07/0...3100013ae73.txt Enjoy!
carbro Posted July 9, 2007 Posted July 9, 2007 Thanks, Uncle! City Ballet followers are well aware of Andrew's steady progress. It seems reasonable to conclude from your screen name that he is one of your pride-inducing nephews, and Francis in Pennsylvania Ballet the other. Welcome to BalletTalk!
ProudUncleof2 Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 Carbo, You are correct. Thank you for your special comment. I just spent a week with both gentlemen in Saratoga Springs. FYI, both are healthy and Andrew enjoyed a number of masterful performances at the SPAC (Saratoga Performing Arts Center). Again thanks for your comment and the great job you all do with Ballet Talk. Sincerely, Proud Uncle Of 2
