dirac Posted September 10 Share Posted September 10 A preview of the fall season in dance by Margaret Fuhrer in The New York Times. Quote FALL FOR DANCE “Eclectic” remains the word, and $20 (plus fees), the ticket price, for this long-running festival. But its five sampler-style programs are notably ballet-forward this year, with the National Ballet of Ukraine in Alexei Ratmansky’s poignant “Wartime Elegy,” Canada’s Royal Winnipeg Ballet in a premiere by Cameron Fraser-Monroe, and the American Ballet Theater stars Skylar Brandt and Herman Cornejo in Cornejo’s new production of “The Specter of the Rose.” (Sept. 18-29, New York City Center) Link to comment
dirac Posted September 10 Author Share Posted September 10 A preview in brief of NYCB's new all-Peck program by Apollinaire Scherr for Air Mail. Quote ......The paradox of Peck is that the less he worries about “relatability,” the more poignant and absorbing the work is. In Creases is a lonely boy’s ode to joy: the joy of pattern and of flight. Link to comment
