Update

Our performance of Don Q (the dream scene) went pretty well on Sunday. Except for a missed position in one variation (some of the corps didn’t move so the rest of us stayed, that way it looked like it was supposed to be that way) everything went smoothly. It was a great experience! We were a part of Day of the Arts in our city, it’s a huge event where the best musicians, dancers, and actors all come together and perform. It was so big that we (the performers) had to have backstage passes with security guards showing us where to go and taking names, it was quite the experience.

I unfortunately didn’t get any good pictures because of the fact that my mom didn’t push the right button on my camera. But I still had a great time.

Don Q on Sunday

My first performance with my schools junior company in this Sunday! I’m just a lowly Corps De ballet member, but I’m still excited, this will be my first ever performance with these people. I’m hopping that if I do a good job I will get moved up to soloist for our December show… I think we will be doing Giselle. I’ll try to post pictures if I get any good ones!!

P.S. Isn't this picture of Alina Somova amazing?! I think its a little... excessive but it takes a lot of skill to pull that off!
