My dad is having a show!

As some of you might already know, my dad happens to be an exceptional photographer :P and for the past 15 years he’s been creating beautiful images of José Mateo’s Ballet Theatre of Boston - a great company (and school) who exclusively dance Mr. Matéo’s choreography. I went to their school right before I left Boston to come to SAB and they gave me the strength and the amazing experience of working directly with a gifted choreographer, before I even got to New York.

This Friday, they are having a gala showing of the work my dad has done with the company. (Needless it’s been a journey for my dad and BTB to go through and decide which pieces will be shown after 15 years of collaboration!)
It’s at BTB’s beautifully renovated church space in Harvard Square. (You might remember the picture I took when I taught there this summer). Doug and I are taking the Acela up Friday afternoon for the show. I can’t wait!

This may be a little off topic, but we had one of our meetings in the Lincoln Center construction trailer outside the theatre (it was Gala day so space was harder to come by) and they had this printout hanging on the wall.
Too funny/sad not to share…

The meeting room in the LC construction trailer in the sky (on stilts). Lots of amazing architectural drawings of Lincoln Center plans all over the place.
It also rocks with the wind… kind of like being on a boat. But not.

The Rolling Stones… Eight storeys high (at Sony Lincoln Square/IMAX). The opening documentary style stuff was smaller, then when the actual show (shot at the Beacon Theater) begins, Scorsese blasts you with the full IMAX screen. It’s pretty amazing, although two hours becomes a bit long to feel like you’re at a live Rolling Stones show, but to just be sitting quietly in a movie theater. I’d definitely recommend checking it out though.
It’s interesting to see what a film director does with a live performance… and no definitive set list.
