An imaginative production; makes us view the old productions, themes, relationships in a new, thoughtful mind extending way. The high qualities of the performances keeps the old way alive, i.e., reminds us of prior, historically embossed older performances, that is, makes a connection. 'There is a marriage of the old and the new, not a marriage of smiles and sweet works, but rather a tension, a tension which enlivens the production, sparks our interest, One is never bored looking and hearing this work; despite new turns to the old way of doing the work, there is great continuity. The director, the dancers, the orchestra leader, the craftsmen of the sets, and the superb lighting guys all helped in producing a controversial and yet a work respectful of the past. I can only imagine the divisions, criticisms, hopefully no mean words employed, in arriving at harmony, integrity, and radiance. I congratulate you all --all very talented people whom I hope have a long and successful future career. You have already taken a step into new kinds of ballet; the old made anew. Congratulations!

I never tire watching this excellent production and Tchaikovsky’s dramatic score. I’ll be sure to catch it when they visit the Bay Area.
