Leigh Witchel Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 Hans, Ami, Helene and I in a raucous conversation after Corsaire (I credit Hans for the brilliant idea of mini golf during Jardin Anime. I merely wanted lawn ornaments) figured out a new game - Ballet Clue. By the end, we had figured out that - It was Giselle in the Kingdom of the Shades with the Spindle.

carbro Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 After a weekend spent in various enchanted woodlands, I know for sure that it was Puck in the Highland Manor House with the magic flower. No, not Oberon's magic flower -- the one from Le Corsaire! Link to comment
Hans Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 I think it was Hagar in the Kingdom of Sweets with the pirate sword! Link to comment

Amy Reusch Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 Myrtha in Prodigal Son with one of Madge's scarves? ... and, ahem.. it's nowhere near warm enough to be August yet. Link to comment
bart Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 The Jester in the Ballroom with a firebird feather.I've often thought of the Jester as a desirable victim rather than a perpetrator. I think we had a thread on this once. The Sonnambula at the Filling Station with Clara's (or Marie's?) shoe. Link to comment

ami1436 Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 Sheesh -- I just returned home a little while ago to see that Leigh has already continued our silliness! (And I still am secretly hoping for an Easter Egg Roll in the Jardin!) Link to comment

(And I still am secretly hoping for an Easter Egg Roll in the Jardin!) Perhaps it was Miss Julie (who had a whip) joining forces with the Accused (who we all know was Lizzie Bordon with an Ax) who ran away to Dancers at a Gathering to do who knows what. Link to comment
carbro Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Clearly this marks the onset of ... ta-DAH!!! The Silly Season! A wee bit premature, but who cares? This is very clever! Keep 'em coming! Link to comment

vipa Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 Sorry one more! Although he's a Dim Lustre when Push Comes to Shove he gets off Fancy Free. I had to get that off my chest. Sorry - no more! Link to comment

bart Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 Um, Tybalt in the Veronese piazza with a sword? carbro, I misread this at first and spent some time trying to recall a ballet in which "Veronese pizza" had a role. :blush: I remember an updating of Cosi fan Tutte which Jonathan Miller set in a 1950s diner. So why not Tarantella and Pulcinella at a Neapolitan pizza stand. Then, there's Spartacus (pizza a la Romana), Taming of the Shrew (pizza piccante), and even Manon (pizza puttanesca). And how about Tharp's long-promised "Ten Sinatra Songs" (with the addition of "When the Moon Hits your Eye Like a Big Pizza Pie" etc.). If you keep your fingers in your ears and pay no attention to phrasing, Dean Martin DOES sound a little like Sinatra. Link to comment
