I'm taking the train up from DC tomorrow to see WSS matinee for the second time and NYCB "Swan Lake" in the evening (although in this case, it's Martins' production, so I'm guessing his spirit is still hanging out).
About Brantley's WSS review, I can't prove it, of course, but I'd bet about half of it was written before he left for the theater. And his analysis of the acting and choreography just feels lazy. Perhaps he's still recovering from jet lag.
Peter Marks' in the Washington Post is an unqualified rave. |
