The Opera House is dark this week and the Company is across the street at 455, preparing for the final two programs of the season. For a high-definition preview of three of the works on these programs, check out our new YouTube videos of Balanchine’s “Diamonds,” Possokhov’s Fusionand Elo’s Double Evil. If you haven’t done so already, subscribe to the Ballet’s YouTube channel to receive updates when new videos are posted.
The dancers aren’t the only ones preparing for Programs 7 & 8. Wardrobe Manager George Elvin and the wardrobe department are hard at work this week fitting costumes for Balanchine’s Jewels on the Company. Stars and Stripes costumes will be fitted to upper level school boys for the upcoming Student Showcase. Additionally, costumes for Russian Seasons arrived this week (being unpacked in the photo below by Costume Production Coordinator Nancy Endy).
In case you haven’t heard, we’ve announced our 2010 Repertory Season! Read more about it here, with highlights including the return of Swan Lake and Romeo & Juliet, and the US premiere of John Neumeier’s The Little Mermaid. It’s going to be an amazing season!
