La Belle d'Alexei Ratmansky

Laurine Mortha, 6th September

L’American Ballet Theatre inaugure la saison 2016/2017 de l’Opéra de Paris en proposant une nouvelle version de La Belle au Bois Dormant signée en 2015 par Alexei Ratmansky souhaitant restaurer l’esthétique de la chorégraphie de Marius Petipa de 1890.

Ratmansky/Robbins/Balanchine/Peck au Palais Garnier

Laurine Mortha, 2nd April

Le Ballet de l’Opéra de Paris présente une nouvelle soirée néoclassique qui met à l’honneur trois générations de chorégraphes : Georges Balanchine, Jerome Robbins et les chorégraphes contemporains Alexeï Ratmansky et Justin Peck.

Robbins/Ratmansky à Garnier

Laurine Mortha, 21st June

La représentation s’est ouverte sur le défilé de l’école de danse et du ballet, cortège pompeux et bien hiérarchisé de danseurs qui progressent en rang les uns après les autres, en costumes académiques et tutus blancs. L’exercice soumet les étoiles de l’Opéra, qui saluent seuls, au jeu cruel de l’applaudimètre et n’est pas toujours le bon reflet de la qualité de leur performance.

Ivy Lin's love of ballet began in high school when at the school dance she quickly realized she had two left feet. One always admires things one cannot do, and so Ivy began to attend dance performances to marvel at the grace and beauty of bodies in motion. Ivy's day job is a biology teacher and after a long day in the classroom she loves to unwind by watching dance. She also enjoys theater, opera, pop and classical music.
