wallis Posted May 11, 2018 Author Share Posted May 11, 2018 (edited) I saw it last night. It was practically flawless. Well, that's my somewhat untrained-for-Balanchine eye. The corps, as usual this year, were radiant and in tune with each other. There are a few dancers who wear the Balanchine mantle with aplomb; notably- Lillian DiPiazza, Alexandra Hughes, and corps member Jacqueline Callahan. Rubies was outstanding, there was so much energy on stage. I look forward to hearing from more of you who are so knowledgeable in ballet. I do hope you are able to see it.

cobweb Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 Thanks for the report, wallis! I agree about the corps - when I saw them in Swan Lake two months ago, they were highly impressive. Sorry I won't get to see Jewels, as I can't make the trip this weekend, but I totally plan on more trips to see Pennsylvania Ballet. I can't wait for the chance to see Lillian DiPiazza.
