Great write-up, and I agree with just about all of it. When Ulrich reiweved TLM last year for the SF Chron I was furious, as he didn’t seem to understand it, much less appreciate it and having been deeply moved by it, I was bothered by that. I too saw it when it opened on 3/20/10 and again this year on its 2011 opening night, Saturday 4/30. The cast was almost the same save for Pascal as the Poet instead of Lloyd Riggins as when I saw it last year. Pascal was great too, and once again I found this ballet spellbinding from beginning to end. I’m very excited that this year, I get to see it a second time with the alternate cast! It truly is a very special ballet and one I hope sticks around for a long, long time.

Please consider taking the Royal Opera Ballet’s Nutcracker costumes designs. SF Ballet’s costumes in general are lack of complexity, layers of colours. The costumes are really enhancing the visual effect the dancers carry them around on the stage. I hope ‘grandeous’ is the direction SF ballet willing to go.

These are two of my passions, cooking and dancing! I love them both.

Joan, Now that you’re becoming an old hand in the kitchen you should try a cooking class at one of the Il Fornaio restaurants!!

Thanks to Brooks Brothers for their support of the SF Ballet Auxiliary and the SF Ballet…and to Stephanie Russell, whose positive attitude makes volunteering fun.

I’m sad to learn that you have to physically be located in San Francisco tomorrow in order to partake in the last contest. (I live in Silicon Valley.) Good luck to all who live in the city. What a wonderful prize.
