...sort of gesture in Stravinsky's "Les Noces"--highly specific, mimetic gesture, yet abstract, interesting as pure form. Ignoring the abbreviated libretto Stravinsky wrote with Bronislava Nijinska for the 1923 Diaghilev premiere, the choreographer presents instead his own vision of a Russian peasant rite, an innocent bride and shy groom, their anxious yet wise parents, and high-spirited friends. In a recent interview Lubovitch explained...

There is a rambunctious interlude in a sports car, small and overcrowded, where a pregnant passenger in the boot tips the balance and sends the MG down the street on rear axle power, looking like a bicycle on training wheels...
...early-American nuptial garb, will be held between shows at the Kings Island entertainment center in Ohio, where Paul Revere (his real name) will be performing. The couple met five years ago on July 4, and "that's why we chose the date for our wedding," claims the groom-to-be. Wait, there's more: officiating at the ceremony will be the Rev. Gene Skipworth of Cincinnati, who will perform the honors dressed in an Uncle Sam costume...
