So Rothbart's costume is still the same one as the DVD recording from 2005? That's interesting to know, it's definetly the Rothbart costume that has given me the most whiplash
I love the way you have captured Gillian Murphy’s artistry with such sensitivity and heart, and the way you spoke about the emotion of a dancer’s final season, it felt both real and deeply respectful. Such an insightful article thank you!
While the opinion expressed here is largely favorable to the new Prince Siegfried, I wonder why a corps de ballet dancer was chosen to play this role. I find it odd but I have seen this from time to time in other companies as well. I just find it hard to believe that a corps dancer is the best choice to take on a new lead role over dancers in the higher levels, such as soloists.
On a different topic, Michael’s last name is correct in all of the paragraphs but unfortunately, his name under each of the photos is incorrect.
Thanks a million for the correction! It has been updated. And this is a great question, I think the director is shaping the dancers and the company into her own vision. She's probably taking a longer view as far as press and development of their potential, rather than that particular show.
