Wow, how exciting!! She first cstched my eyes as a student at APG Monaco, when she danced at the APG gala 2018, alongside Shale Wagman a choreography by Franceso Nappa, “Les Amants voliés” What a PDD!!!! Congratulations Mackenzie Brown!!💐 -
Thanks Fiona, I wasn't aware of this. However, the "old institutions" , e.g. Mariinsky, seem to focus on the classical ballet only. I hope the younger generation of audience demands also modern pieces, and I bet the dancers would love to widen their horizon 😉

Reminder...it's tonight and then up for 3 months. -
I'm just glad that classical ballets, music, or Opera etc have survived all political hassle over the years. It's the quality of the old masters which survives everything. Also, the Mariinsky and the Bolshoi have seen and survived many dictators, upheavals, cold war etc, so I'm optimistic their quality survives these dark times as well (but they should be more open to more contemporary dance, imo). I would love to attend a Mariinsky performance again as soon as possible.

Do you go to the Stage Door?
Sabine0308 replied to Jan McNulty's topic in Performances seen & general discussions
To answer the question: Yes, often. And I love it when the artists ask me if I want a selfie.😀 -

I saw the stage rehearsal with Weronica, and there was lots of work on details. I'm sure she will dive more into the role. Polina's artistry is something else though. I will watch the livestream and decide then if I go and see it live. I admit the music is a bit...umm...challenging for my ears. -

I would agree that it works perfectly dramatically, IF I would notice a sign of exhaustion, last breath, close to breaking point but not giving in etc...but in the video above it's so perfect that it does look like sport. I think I've seen only Baryshnikov (in a video I can't find anymore) expressing this kind of exhaustion. It makes the situation Albrecht is in much more "realistic".

Weird. Just saw on Iana's IG that they rehearse for tomorrow's matinee. 🤔 Will check it out.

Thank you Fiona, but I think it's not the actual ballet?

I'm curious to see how you now deal here with "we have double standards" (ref: Prisca Zeisel vs. ROB dancers).- 30 replies

Prisca Zeisel leaves Bavarian State Ballet
Sabine0308 replied to Angela's topic in Ballet / Dance news & information
Exactly. And since artists are prominent in the public, they are much more in the focus of attacks as companies still doing business, that's why I posted the link above. There is no Black and white in this world. That's all I wish to consider. -

Sabine0308 replied to Angela's topic in Ballet / Dance news & information
But we don't discuss only Superstars here, right? I agree that there are more impressive ballerinas in Munich, those you mentioned and some others, but I am sad that comments on Prisca are only related to the termination of her contract. She doesn’t deserved that. -

Wow, are all Russians war criminals?? Because I don't know who was in the audience. If so, throw out all Russian dancers from Western companies who did not speak out against the war in public (or in this forum🙄). Btw I wish she had been noticed and mentioned here BEFORE much more for her artistry.
