cubanmiamiboy Posted May 25, 2015 Posted May 25, 2015 Hello everyone! I will be again jumping on a plane to capture a ballet moment, in this case compatriot Reyes' retirement in Giselle. I will be there every night from 05/26-(Vishneva/Gomez) until 05/31. Let's meet! (And...how about a post performance drink somewhere nearby? ) Hugs: Cristian
Barbara Posted May 25, 2015 Posted May 25, 2015 I will be at the 5/26 evening and 5/30 matinee. Would love to meet you since I've never had the pleasure and I enjoy your posts so much!
lafemme Posted May 25, 2015 Posted May 25, 2015 I'm very new to this forum and ballet, but I will be attending the 5/26, and would love to say hello! I am returning for Sleeping Beauty and R&J, and possibly La Bayadere and/or Cinderella/ Swan Lake.
cubanmiamiboy Posted May 26, 2015 Author Posted May 26, 2015 Oh, wonderful!! I will probably be around the bar next to the Chagall painting-(facing the plaza, on the right hand side)-having a cocktail during the intermezzo. You can't miss me. Skinny blond guy with glasses wearing all black. Looking forward to meet!

I also enjoy your posts and would love to meet up with you and we can discuss the wonderful Lorena Feijoo!!! Cheers, Herm
cubanmiamiboy Posted May 26, 2015 Author Posted May 26, 2015 Great all!! :-) :-) I am already at the LC roaming around before tonight's performance. I worked my 12 hours shift last night...went straight to the airport in my scrubs to catch an early morning fly that got delayed..checked in my hotel at 4, a couple of hours nap and HERE I AM TO SEE THE GIRL DYING OF LOVE..A HEART ATTACK...A SUICIDE WITH A SWORD...OR WHATEVER. Just to see her!! :-) :-)
KarenAG Posted May 27, 2015 Posted May 27, 2015 Cristian, your love and endless enthusiasm for this ballet is wonderful - and infectious! I do wish I could see more than one performance, but I just CAN'T WAIT for tonight and I hope to meet a few of my fellow BA-Niks at 'Cristian's Bar' at intermission!
seattle_dancer Posted May 28, 2015 Posted May 28, 2015 Hi Cristian, I just flew in from Seattle for my college reunion and more importantly to see some ballet. I will be at Giselle tonight to catch the elusive Natalia Osipova. Hope to meet you and Herm at your bar at intermission. I plan to wear a modern print dress mostly chartreuse with black and white. I am short with low black ponytail. I am heading down to the plaza bit early to exchange some tickets
seattle_dancer Posted May 28, 2015 Posted May 28, 2015 Oops hit post prematurely by mistake. I'm also going to NYCB Sat matinee and ABT Sat eve. Kills me to miss the Beauty NY premiere! Anyone coming for Royal Ballet in four weeks? See you soon, Jodi
sf_herminator Posted May 28, 2015 Posted May 28, 2015 In the house now, in rear orchestra left, hope to see you at intermission!!!!
cubanmiamiboy Posted May 29, 2015 Author Posted May 29, 2015 It has been wonderful to see all of you too!! I love talking about ballet and being bad mouthed too about what I don't like..(something I can't do here. :-) :-) :-)). I will be in "my bar" again, tomorrow night for SB. See ya!! :-) :-)
Natalia Posted May 29, 2015 Posted May 29, 2015 Cristian, I've sent you PM. I've been working around preparations for funeral of close family friend tomorrow in DC but I'm on my way to NYC/SB premiere now. (The dear gent who passed away loved ballet, was a long-time Kirov Academy-DC donor, and would've wanted me to proceed, so I'm on my way!!!!) Will look for you at the Chagall mural bar at some interval or before/after show.
seattle_dancer Posted May 29, 2015 Posted May 29, 2015 Natalia, Cristian, Herm and I are meeting for dinner at 5:30, the restaurant directly across the street from the New York State Theater. It used to be Iridium but I think it's called something like Daffy's now. Hope you can join us!

It used to be Iridium but I think it's called something like Daffy's now. Hope you can join us! It's P.J Clarke's. It is on the corner of Columbus & 63rd. The address is 44 W 63rd St. http://www.pjclarkes.com/. Looking forward to seeing you all.

seattle_dancer Posted May 29, 2015 Posted May 29, 2015 Ugh. Tried to say thanks Herm! from the subway. See you in a bit!
rkoretzky Posted May 29, 2015 Posted May 29, 2015 Friends! Last minute decision. I am here in the house. Are you all meeting at 1st intermission. Please confirm location. Will be here tomorrow matinee too. That was planned.
Barbara Posted May 30, 2015 Posted May 30, 2015 I'll be at the SB matinee tomorrow. Will meander over to "Cristian's bar" at intermission and see who's there! I have some grave doubts as to whether or not I'm going to like this SB interpretation.
KarenAG Posted May 30, 2015 Posted May 30, 2015 I hope you are having a wonderful time tonight! I wish I were here with you all. On Wednesday, I met Cristian, Balanchinomane and someone else at intermission whose name I did not hear and so, I am sorry, do not know who it was. It's so great to meet my friends from BA!
cubanmiamiboy Posted May 30, 2015 Author Posted May 30, 2015 Oh, It has been WONDERFUL to see you all. I am really happy to see old friends, like Natalia, Fauxpas, Nysusan, abatt, Leigh Witchell, Ivy Lin and many others, as well as new ones. Tomorrow I will be at "Christian's bar" once again at the matinee. Cheers!! :-) :-)
