Wildly offensive, but wildly entertaining too: ABT's Le Corsaire
Perhaps ABT's disclaimer in the program notes should have simply said: "When you watch Le Corsaire, prepare to be both offended and entertained. We hope you'll be more entertained than offended."
“The spirit of Margot” celebrated in The Royal Ballet's Fonteyn gala
A memorable and important event in the history of British ballet, sensitively and sentimentally performed.
Pure dance with joyful power
An exciting London season closes with a glimpse of where ballet is headed, San Francisco style.
A lively evening of pure dance from San Francisco Ballet
An enjoyable evening of thematic dance but without any insights into the future of ballet.
A gorgeous triple bill to end The Royal Ballet's season
The Firebird/A Month in the Country/Symphony in C is an effective and enjoyable programme to close The Royal Ballet's season.
