ABT Fan Posted May 25, 2019 Share Posted May 25, 2019 Is anyone going? I’d be curious to hear how Klein and Maloney are as The Boy. Link to comment
FauxPas Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 I saw Jonathan Klein dance the Boy on Wednesday the 29th. He really danced extremely well, has a very prepossessing face and physique and a lot of charm onstage. He also partnered a charming Cassandra Trenary as Princess Praline very well. Let's see him in some soloist roles. Devon Teuscher was Princess Tea Flower and she had a lovely smile but I think Stella Abrera brought out more detail and wit in the choreography - she didn't quite catch all the personality in the solos. Thomas Forster partnered her wonderfully as Prince Coffee. Luckily only one cranky child in the audience and the rest of the crowd was quiet. BTW: Sean Stewart returned to ABT as one of the boys in the first act - evidently there were corps injuries and he came back. He has been working with New York Theatre Ballet and coaching the ABT Studio Company apprentices. Link to comment
