part 367 bears and wolves oh my

YOU DID IT, I'M SO PROUD OF YOU. Well, it's been a year. I hope it was a good one for you--and that 2018 is even better! And maybe we'll finally get that fansub of even one of the musicals... just maybe.

Enjoy part 367!

i forget if i ever updated that i'd watched that modern quirky version of "the nutcracker" at christmas? regardless, that's the last i watched. i liked it, but feel like it sort of got less cohesion after it went from orphanage to dream world. i saw the swan lake version by the same creator linked in the recommended and saw people lauding it in the comments of the nutcracker one, so maybe i'll check that out sometime.

have you ever seen the alice in wonderland ballet? i got to see that while it was in my city but that was years ago.

what's the last you watched, anon? any ballerina goss?

I personally don't care for his Swan Lake, but I know I'm in the minority in that. I guess I prefer his revisions which stay a little closer to the source material, at least in terms of broad concepts. I really realllly want to see his Cinderella, which is set in WWII London. They filmed it professionally and it was on the BBC iPlayer for some time but I could never find a way to watch it from the USA. I think it's gone now...

I haven't!! Who choreographed it? What did you think?

The last I watched was Anthony Dowell's The Sleeping Beauty, from 1994. It was a really gorgeous production. I liked that it felt theatrical, thanks to the stage/production design being by the same person who did Phantom of the Opera on Broadway. I wish the video quality was better but I could live with it.

Gossip you mean? Ahhh not much except the recent Misty Copeland kerfluffle!
