cobweb Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 There are a few changes to the casting. Scheller is out for the first week, replaced in Tchai Piano Concert #2 by Savannah Lowery. Scheller is still scheduled to dance the second week, though. And for the third week, Unity Phelan replaces Ashly Isaacs in the lead of Pictures at an Exhibition, though Isaacs remain scheduled for other pieces (so apparently this is not due to Isaacs injury). I would love to hear any reports on these performances! Link to comment
sohalia Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 A nice article in the NYT on some of the dancers in Paris: http://www.nytimes.com/2016/07/14/arts/dance/new-york-city-ballet-savors-the-city-of-light-paris-theatre-du-chatelet.html?smid=tw-nytimesarts&smtyp=cur Congrats to Silas on his engagement!

meunier fan Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 I wrote a journal of sorts - as someone who used to live in NYC and came to LOVE NYCB - and still do - and who saw ALL of the NYCB performances at the Chatelet here: http://www.balletcoforum.com/index.php?/topic/12934-nycb-paris-2016-theatre-du-chatelet/#entry178752 Please forgive the errors - I am a more than middling dyslexic - on this forum you only have half an hour to make corrections - and I was frequently in a rush - as I was working in Paris throughout the period. Still I hope it's better than nothing and I think it says much that of ALL the major British broadsheets - on The Times and the Financial Times chose to cover it - and even then not the major Peck programme. Go figure.. Link to comment
sandik Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 Thanks so much for the on the ground report -- living far away from NYC, and farther from Paris, I appreciate hearing about your first-hand view! Link to comment
