and the dance season will include a series of 7 performances by the ABT, between Feb
6 and Feb 11
There will be five different mixed bills, with a total repertory of 7 works:
-"La Bayadère" (Shadows Act), "Dark Elegies" and "Rodeo" (Feb 6)
-"Symphonie concertante" and "The Green Table" (Feb 7)
-"La Bayadère" (Shadows Act), "Drink to me only with thine eyes" and "Rodeo" (Feb 8
and 10)
-"Symphonie Concertante", "Dark Elegies" and "In the Upper Room" (Feb 9 and 11)
-"Drink to me only with thine eyes" and "The Green Table" (Feb 10)
To me those are interesting programs (even though a bit too focused on modern works for my taste), as "Symphonie concertante" isn't, as far as I know, in the POB's repertory (I doubt it ever was danced in France, or at least in the last decades), "Dark Elegies" is but hasn't been danced since about 1997, "The Green Table" isn't performed any longer by any French company (it used to be in the Ballet du Rhin's repertory in the mid and late 1990s but isn't any longer), "Rodeo" was last seen in Paris, as far as I know, in 1994 during an SFB tour, and the opportunities to see some Morris works are very scarce too.
And the wealth of programs in the 10-11 week-end means that even un-parisians such as myself might get an opportunity to see it (but I wonder how fast all that will be sold out...)
