dirac Posted September 10 Author Share Posted September 10 A review of Houston Ballet in "The Little Mermaid" by Natalie De La Garza for Houston Press. Quote Speaking of the Poet, though the word “tortured” is missing from his character name, Connor Walsh embodies the phrase. Between the black top hat and coat he wears and his saucer-like eyes and expressive, perpetually stricken face, Walsh looks as though he’s jumped straight from the silent screen onto the stage. He often finds himself a wide-eyed spectator, trying to intervene and alter the direction of the story but seemingly at the mercy of his own creations, like when he tries, unsuccessfully, to force the Prince’s attention in the Mermaid’s direction.
