I haven't seen anything in the media, so I just called PNB's offices to get the news. Here are the promotions announced last night:

Maria Chapman to principal
Karel Cruz to principal
Lindsi Dec to soloist

There were several apprentice to corps promotions but I did not take the time to ask for that list.

[later edit.....I now see that sandik posted the full promotion list as an add-on to another topic. I will leave this post here in case there are others like me who don't connect that topic title with the promotions news.]

That is great news! Congratulations to all

Here are the apprentices who have been promoted to the corps de ballet:

Andrew Bartee
Amanda Clark
Kyle Davis
Emma Love
Margaret Mullin
Sean Rollofson

(Taken from sandik's post......thanks Sandi.)

The full press release (with bios) is here

It's about time! Congrats to Maria, Karel, and especially Lindsi who has been ready for quite some time!

The website's been updated:

Click "The Artists" from the horizontal menu, and choose a category from the vertical sub-menu.

Oh! That must be such a wonderful transition for Karel and Lindsi! They both richly deserve it.

A wonderful wedding present!

Bravo Karel!!!

Agreed!

It's not a promotion per se, but it is in the employment line -- Peter Boal mentioned at one of the post-show Q&A last week that he's signed a 5 year renewal on his contract.

Excellent news!
