New Haven, Connecticut - home for the next three years. Show reports will be now coming from New York City, mostly (whenever my new-fangled schedule will allow for trips to the city!).

(The closing tableau of Etudes. Photo: me) Different casting at the Saturday matinee (Aug 9) shifted the balance in American Ballet Theatre's double bill of Etudes and Rabbit & Rogue at the Orange County Performing Arts Center. Where Etudes chugged along rather limply at Wednesday's opening, it was great fun on Saturday, but Rabbit & Rogue lost considerable wattage with its second cast. Irina Dvorovenko...

This kind of photograph is difficult to obtain. It is of the New York State Theater at Lincoln Center. It was ballet season, and the State is home to the New York City Ballet (and the New York City Opera). They don't like you taking pictures, and they are vigilant during shows. I have a friend who works there who let me come in and take some shots when the theater was closed. Here, you can see a ballerina...

One of the luckiest SOB's on the face of the earth is still getting down with a Victoria's Secret model. NBA'er Marko Jaric and Adriana Lima were spotted together at some crap called the 3rd Annual American Ballet Theatre Noche Latina, confirming that he is still having better sex than all of us combined (despite her claims of being a virgin... I choose to ignore all that.) And yes, Marko, you
