"The Magritte Ascot Gavotte is just about all that I recall. The suspended bodies. It was stylized, and 'bold,' but what did it say? Not a damn thing."
I remember reading at the time that it was supposed to demonstrate how the aristocracy float above common people. I guess I got that, but I still thought it was a nutso bit of staging that took the audience out of the story because it was so far out there. The "Ascot Gavotte" is already a very stylized number, and the director and/or choreographer brought the stylization to an even higher level. |
