at the ballet



before. he's not nervous.


the lone man of the dance

the first ballet was 'sylvia'


 this was tricky

they're dryads

 the second act was giselle
 here are the jilted (dead) brides
s is on the right

 they wait while myrtha calls giselle from her grave








then they have to 'chug' across the stage, slowly
these photos were taken a few seconds apart to show the movement





at the beginning, b is on the far left, and s on the far right (but really not visible)
look here to see someone else doing it! (start at 6:08)


 now they watch myrtha tell hilarion he must dance to death - and they make him do it



it was tough to push that big guy around


they show no emotions or mercy

the dancers
