Exactly, the social aspect is half the fun, sometimes more than half! Wouldn't want it all to be wham, bam, . . .

Is ballet a sport?
stephenK replied to xdoodlehead's topic in Performances seen & general discussions
I've googled a definition of sport which is "an activity involving physical exertion and skill in which an individual or team competes against another or others for entertainment". I'd go along with that - the competition element is important and not part of ballet in the same way. Ballet is hard, physical, skilful, entertaining, but my vote is definitely not a sport. -

Royal Ballet "Jewels", Winter 2013
stephenK replied to alison's topic in Performances seen & general discussions
"Every time I read his stuff my eyes roll so hard I worry my contacts will fall off. . . I've honestly learned more about the art form we all love from reading this forum, than I have from a 100 FT reviews by that guy." Possibly it would be an option for you not to read it rather than demand he goes? I can only admire your commitment in reading so much of his output at such personal discomfort.- 151 replies

Absolutely. We don't want anyone informed, erudite and interesting if they disagree with our view. (If in doubt, please treat this as sarcasm.)- 151 replies
