Queen of the Willies

I was a little sad when I first heard that we were performing Giselle for a summer ballet production, but then I remembered how much I love romantic style choreography :)  Many years ago, I performed excerpts from Giselle with some of the advanced dancers and I absolutely loved it, so an entire show should be even better, right?  How could you not love a ballet full of arabesque penchees?

If only....
I can't wait to see who comes to our small town to fill the principle roles.  I think my favorite couple to play Giselle and Albrecht were Makarova and Baryshnikov.  Pretty much the perfect pair for the ballet.
