Haglund is shining up his glitterwear for next Tuesday's New York City Ballet Gala performance. Peter Martins' new piece is said to have all of the principals dancing on stage. Since it's an all too rare chance to see Jennie Somogyi performing, Haglund recommends that everyone attend.
The first week of Nutcracker casting is up on the website, and it's a little hum-drum. Haglund is waiting and hoping that Kaitlyn Gilliland will get another chance at Sugar Plum this year. Her debut in the role last year came on Christmas Eve and was fantastic.

Enjoy the performance of the French team, Aurélie Dupont & Matthias Heymann! Dupont was on fire during the recent Jewels run in Paris. We certainly loved having Ashley Bouder and Gonzalo Garcia in Paris last week... Reviewed it on Bella Figura if you're interested. Now I wish we could persuade them to come and visit more often!

Hi Laura!
Haglund is looking forward to seeing the POB guests in Rubies. These exchanges are such a terrific idea.

Thanks again.
