jimmattimore Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 i spotted Katie (Kathryn ) Morgan in 2005 at the SAB Workshop and knew (as did my wife) than she was exceptional; we saw her again 2006 SAB Workshop, and she confirmed our appraisal. She is now an apprentice with NYCB, shone in "Carousel," and glittered as Juliet in Peter's Romeo+ Juliet. She's dancing in other dancer's shoes for Heaven's Sake. She is beautiful, has great port de bras, lovely footwork, a perfect ballerina body. Even The great Peter hater--------Gottlieb ---------------praised her. We have her and Ashley and Janie(if she ever recovers from her injuries), and Sarah and Gina and Rachel for years to come,so let us revel at what have at NYCB in June of 2007. I can't wait for 2017. Praise to the current company, old and young. Jim Link to comment
drb Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 Katie (Kathryn ) Morgan ... She is now an apprentice with NYCB....She's dancing in other dancer's shoes for Heaven's Sake.Jim Actually she's a member of the Corps.... But the shoes are from Ashley Bouder and Darci Kistler, so doesn't that make her, on the bottom line, a Principal? A beautiful and refined ballerina! Agree that the company is a fabulous collection of dancers, young and old! Link to comment

Agree that the company is a fabulous collection of dancers, young and old! More clarification! She actually finally has her own maker and own shoes. Last week someone at the gift shop pointed out that one of the pairs of Morgan shoes actually said "Morgan" on the bottom in contrast to other pairs which still said "Bouder" and "Kistler".

harpergroup Posted June 16, 2007 Share Posted June 16, 2007 She has also used shoes from one of the Tracey girls (not sure which). But yes, her own finally made it from England, apparently. Link to comment

Kathleen O'Connell Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 She's dancing in other dancer's shoes for Heaven's Sake. A little off-toipc -- gleaned from my collection of corps shoes bought on "spec": Stafford = Ansanelli Bouder = Sloan Scheller = Körbes Link to comment
