Alexandra Posted June 17, 2004 Share Posted June 17, 2004 Paul, your Periodic Tables reminded me of something choreographed by Frank Schaufuss (Peter's Dad) in the 1950s: Fever. In which Fever, a male dancer clad in next to nothing, leads a corps of The White Blood Cells and The Red Blood Cells to try to recover from what I think was an unseen virus. (I've only seen photos, not the whole thing. It didn't last long.) Not nearly as complex as yours, but one of the few scientific ballets I've ever heard of. Link to comment
Mme. Hermine Posted June 17, 2004 Share Posted June 17, 2004 anybody remember the essay on the bill clinton "opera" that made the rounds a while ago? not too far a stretch for a ballet, i'd say. http://www.wilk4.com/humor/humorm231.htm if that link isn't kosher, please edit me! Link to comment
klingsor Posted June 17, 2004 Share Posted June 17, 2004 Repulsion (1965) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0059646/ Too late now, but... With Gelsey Kirkland Choreography: Tudor Music: Schoenberg, maybe? Link to comment
