Today we had the pleasure of welcoming Jeff back into the studio (at least for the moment!) He is in between projects with Noemie LaFrance, and we take him any time we can get him!
At the end of rehearsal we watched the footage from the “Pelleas et Melisande” premiere and it made me so inspired to get back to work on the re-staging of it. It’s good to feel that… A positive push to make the better parts better and to change the parts that didnt work so well. I know the feeling when I see something of mine and I just feel like “that’s just not good Kate, let that one go”. But there is something strangely fascinating to me about Pelleas. I just can’t wait to dig back in.
Still searching for the score for what will be the other new piece of the season. Just have not found it yet. But it will surely come.
Anyway, today really was great. It occurred to me that Jeff, Lynn and I have now danced with each other for a decade. We met freshman year at Purchase in 1998. Definitely a special thing to have moved with someone over time.
Great rehearsal…

This is one of the posters starting appear around the city (this one at 5th Ave N/R/W train stop). This is a great event at City Center (all tickets $10!!!) The shows are in Sept. Everything from Shen Wei, ABT, Cunningham, to Oregon Ballet Theater and much much more. A great mix, the right price, and a SUPERB venue. One of these days, we hope SYREN will get on the bill! In the meantime, we are enthusiastic supporters.
Check it out!
