kfw Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 I love the Suzanne Farrell Ballet program of Swan Lake, Allegro Brilliante, Monumentum pro Gesualdo/Movements for Piano and Orchestra, and The Concert. Except for Monumentum/Movements, I believe those are all company premieres. I know they haven't danced them at the Kennedy Center. But it's surprising to see that the season is only three days long, down from five days in previous seasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ABT Fan Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 ABT will be doing Pillar of Fire and Push Comes to Shove. So, I'm going to hope/assume (with glee) that they'll be reviving those ballets for their Met season that summer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abatt Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 If they are going to Tudor, I was hoping for Leaves are Fading or Lilac Garden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have gone down to DC for that but I don't want to pay inflated holiday prices for transportation/hotel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the other hand, the performances are in the Opera House (not the Eisenhower Theater). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So quite possibly in 2015 they'll be back in the Eisenhower for the usual five-day, two-program run. I hope so. On the other hand, this year I can catch both SFB and Little Dancer in one trip. Bummer, Dale. Sorry you'll have to miss it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abatt Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 Here's some more info on "Little Dancer", the Susan Stroman project which will star NYCB's Tiler Peck. Apparently musical theater actor Jason Danieley will co-star. http://www.playbill.com/news/article/191512-Broadways-Best-Gather-to-Honor-Susan-Stroman-Plus-a-Surprise-Preview-of-Little-Dancer?tsrc=nx I hope this comes to NYC eventually.
