...swing in unison for the remainder of the ballet. This stark, surprising introduction immediately drew me into the piece. The ever-present wine glasses represent the promises and happiness of the wedding; they hang from the ceiling to show a direct opposition to the unhappy events that ensue. The bride has an affair and ultimately is forced to choose between her lover and her husband. At one extremely moving part of the dance, three other unhappy couples reach toward the ceiling toward the cups, as if wondering where the promises went...

...just as startling and symbolic as the beginning, and also makes use of wine glass imagery. The wine glasses lower from the ceiling, and the guests drop them once more, as if forever abandoning the notion of a happy marriage, leaving the bride, her husband and her lover in the center of the stage.

...marriage, of course, is supposedly all for show and it can be annulled as soon as the bride and groom place their John Hancocks on the dotted line. (Why else would Fox broadcast the show from Last Vegas, Nevada?) Regardless whether the bride and groom fulfill their vows "to love each other forever," both have signed a standard prenuptial agreement and the bride will walk away with nothing less than a two-week vacation (the honeymoon), an Isuzu Trooper and a $35,000 diamond ring...
