It’s hard to believe that the NYCB season at SPAC has already ended. It went so fast! I did manage to catch two different afternoon rehersals and also saw two performances. The dancing was superb. Too bad the audience was so small, but what do you expect with the economy? Lots of people missed out on some excellent dancing.
In addition to watching the NYCB, I also got to take dance classes with four different company members – Philip Neal, Jon Stafford, Jenifer Ringer, and Andrew Cordato. You’d think that these talented dancers would lack patience with the group of students, but that was not the case. Each one was very patient and more than willing to share a story about the company and its performance. I’m sorry to see all of them go….
