SunMi Park makes a promising debut as the Swan Queen with ABT
There is nothing quite comparable to an Odette/Odile debut (unless you’re a basketball fanatic, that is!) in Swan Lake. Well worth watching, and noting, SunMi Park’s progression through ABT.
American Ballet Theatre: Super-Giselle lives up to the hype (mostly)
ABT's Giselle was the kind of glamorous, old-school ABT night of yore. You sensed the entire company leveled up for the occasion. One hopes that Smirnova will return in the future.
American Ballet Theatre: a lack of chemistry sinks Swan Lake
ABT's Swan Lake suffered due an obvious lack of rapport between its lead dancers but there was still some fine dancing on offer.
American Ballet Theatre has a new star in Chloe Misseldine
A star was born, and she was launched into the galaxy. Impressive New York debuts in Swan Lake from Chloe Misseldine and Aran Bell.
Skylar Brandt makes ABT's Swan Lake worth watching
Magnificent leading dancers elevated the performance, but nothing can detract from the fact Kevin McKenzie's Swan Lake is looking tired.
American Ballet Theatre: a promising debut in Giselle
It was all-in-all a wonderful day (and night) at the ballet. Giselle remains ABT’s crown jewel.
