pherank Posted January 12 Author Share Posted January 12 Angelo Greco is back(!), but dancing with Frances rather than Misa. Tiit and John-Paul Simoens as "guests" is kind of funny - maybe YYT asked for Tiit specifically as part of her farewell. Simoens (and his brother Benjamin) is now up at Oregon Ballet Theatre working with Danielle Rowe. Link to comment
Josette Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 I don't doubt that YY Tuan asked to dance a Tomasson pas de deux with Tiit Helimets for the gala. That will be very special. I am happy to see that Isabella DeVivo and John-Paul Simoens are dancing a selection from Broken Wings. It's an incredible work. Link to comment
