ABT has substituted Guillaume Côté in place of Cory Stearns for Stella Abrera's Cinderella at the Wednesday matinee. Totally acceptable. Haglund saw him perform the role with Stella's Cindy three times a few years ago. He was Kudelka's original Prince Charming at the National Ballet of Canada. Handsome lines. Handsome dancer. Looking forward to seeing him again.

Totally agree - I saw Cote with Stella at Met season a few years ago as well. (Maybe ABT should try sticking with guest artists from North and South American companies if they're going to insist on keeping this up - people whose fans are close enough to come to NY to see them might be a good draw....)

I was wondering what you would think of the latest guest artist switcheroo! I can’t make it, so I’m eagerly awaiting your review of Stella and Guillaume’s performance!

Guillaume danced with Stella in her spectacular debut as Cinderella a few years ago and in her two subsequent performances. She hasn't danced with anyone in this role but Guillaume; so, it's probably best for her that he is here. I liked him a lot when he was last here - not a showboat but a real Prince Charming danseur.
