Favorite ABT dancers?
So…this is tricky because there aren't a lot of bootleg videos of performances online to gauge current dancers. Recently, I've only seen Cate "Hurricane" Hurlin live — and her nickname absolutely lives up to the hype. Hurlin is very, very special — an incredible talent. Same with Aran Bell.
I saw Sarah Lane after she was canned from ABT and I was very impressed. Gillian Murphy is probably their best Odile / Odette in a generation. Years ago, I saw Julie Kent in Juliet…absolute perfection. But they are part of the old guard…. But I think there's an exciting rooster of new dancers catching fire there - Chloe Misseldine, Jake Roxander, Devon Teusch. And I'm excited to see where Susan Jaffe's leadership takes the company. Unlike MacKenzie who relied on bringing big-name international stars, I hope Jaffe develops and promotes internal talent. It creates a healthier working environment. I'm going to try to catch a few performances this fall, but lately I've been relying on Gia Kourlas' reviews in The New York Times and Marina Harss writings in Fjord Review — both have subscription firewalls. Sorry…that's a long response to say "the jury's out" but I'm excited for ABT for the first time in a long time. BTW, Julie Kent is leaving DC and will be co-director of the Houston Ballet. I'm very exited to see what she does for the company.
