...Rose Period. The lanky bodies on the iron studio bed in Two Women, 1992, are a little like Courbet's lesbians, without the Second Empire titillation. A naked man on his back, one leg up and a sock dangling from the other foot, penis flopping askew, turns out to echo closely the pose of that Hellenistic image of postbacchanalian fatigue, the Barberini Faun. And so on. Freud doesn't quote ostentatiously, but he is an artist with a full memory -- as any serious painter must be. There is no level on which he could be accused of having an "innocent...
...reconception involves very little change in the text -- some tinkering and one new song -- but a top-to-bottom rethinking of attitude. The intention of composer Lloyd Webber, lyricist-librettists Don Black and Christopher Hampton, choreographer Bob Avian and director Trevor Nunn was always to echo Billy Wilder's astringent film.

Clinton has the power, the smarts and more than enough time...
...enchanted forest. Trinidad Sevillano and Patrick Armand, as the Snow Queen and King, dance the newly choreographed movements with awe-inspiring strength and grace--not an easy task with snow falling throughout the scene, creating a slippery floor. The sweeping arm gestures with delicate bourre leg movement perfectly echo the motion of falling snow while the intertwining dancers surrounding the queen and king create spacial patterns on stage that mimic the delicate shape of a snowflake. Act I closes as a magical balloon carries Clara and her prince up into the night...
