bart Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 Sibley or Dowell? Sibley In 1974, Arlene Croce wrote: On opening night, when Des Grieux introduced himself to Manon, he seemed to be saying, "Madame, I am Anthony Dowell. Notice my turns, my perfect developpe into attitude front." And her answer was "If you're Anthony Dowell, I must be Antoinette Sibley. Let's have a Sibley-Dowell pas de deux." And they did.
