abatt Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 https://www.nytimes.com/2019/06/21/arts/dance/catherine-hurlin-american-ballet-theater.html Great article about Hurlin. Link to comment
ABT Fan Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 Yes, very good article. I suspect, however, that she'll be doing O/O sooner than she thinks. She's gonna be big. Link to comment
nanushka Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 (edited) I enjoyed the article (and I've loved watching Hurlin dance), but it's just unfortunate that this is week 6 of the Met season, and we've so far gotten only two reviews. Not so long ago, we'd get one for most every opening night, and for major ballets sometimes another later in the week. Edited June 22, 2019 by nanushka Link to comment

I imagine they must have been tracking and comparing page views on reviews vs. other dance articles for quite some time now. Still, it’s disappointing. Link to comment

The shift away from reviews has been going on for some time. Still, the NYT actually continues to employ dance critics, which is something these days. Link to comment
Balletwannabe Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 Have they always charged for an online subscription? Maybe that has affected the "clicks". Link to comment
