Tiler Peck’s Symphonie Espagnole for NYCB is sprawling and ambitious
A triple bill including Tiler Peck’s newest ballet for NYCB, does not entirely work. Too much blue light and sadness for one program.
Ashton's The Dream awakens at ABT
Which choreographer's adaptation of A Midsummer’s Night Dream is superior, Ashton or Balanchine? This season, New Yorkers get to compare as ABT revives Ashton's The Dream as part of its Fall season.
Send in the clowns: Alexei Ratmansky revives Harlequinade
A lovingly reproduced historical reconstruction, but is it enough to connect with modern Australian audiences?
Ratmansky triple bill celebrates ten years with ABT
The Seasons is overstuffed, uneven and way too busy. There are so many steps, but they rarely made me "see the music". It was a frustrating ballet, with so many lovely moments that were less than the sum of its parts.
Ratmansky's Harlequinade reconstruction already showing its age
Harlequinade shows Ratmansky's usual scrupulous care when reconstructing Petipa's ballets. His attention to detail and obvious love for the art form are to be admired. But these ballets are also living, breathing works and they need strong performances to be viable in the repertory.
