One reader complained that a freelance reviewer, Sarah Halzack, danced with a local company and therefore had a conflict of interest. Kaufman and Halzack, a Post copy aide, said she does not review a performance when she has more than a passing acquaintance with the choreographer or a performer. That standard applies to all critics.
