Dance on Camera Festival tickets go on sale to the non-member general public on Thursday morning (1-19 tomorrow). Opening the festival on February 3rd will be the long-awaited documentary on Marcelo Gomes that we recall includes some footage of him dancing with Veronika Part. There is so little in the way of a video record of their remarkable partnership. Whatever snippets we can get will always be treasured.

If you have been struggling (like Haglund has been for weeks) to find a legitimately uniformed Girl Scout in Manhattan in order to get your annual fix, worry no more. Here's a link to a page where – for a limited time – you and your swingin' partners can place your orders for the ever-popular do-si-dos without ever having to see the cheery face of a Girl Scout. Within a week or two you'll be allemande left-ing and allemande right-ing those peanut butter goodies right down the alimentary canal, as the Girl Scouts are fond of saying. You may be the Thin Mint type, though. Those and all the other flavors are available at the link. Shipping is expensive, but think of it as a donation to the Girl Scouts.
Which ballet could this be for? Giselle or Whipped Cream?

Hi Yukionna.
It's not a Giselle rehearsal tutu but at least we're getting closer. 😣 We shall persevere in our patience, optimism, and devotion to what's right in this world. My complete guess is that this picture and reference are for the new Whipped Cream. If Ratmansky can see the obvious wisdom in pairing them, why can't McKenzie? We need them to dance that opening night Giselle at the Met. The audience has been patient for 10 years and deserves to see what was promised long ago – before either of them gets injured again.
