Review: Slovak National Ballet

My review of the 2007 fall season of the Slovak National Ballet was just published in [Washington] Dance View 25:2 (Spring 2008), 25-29. I'm mailing copies to the company's press office, as well as several other friends in Bratislava. It's only available in print, not on-line.

The Ballet's Press Office kindly sent a wide selection of marvelous photos, and four were printed with my review. I'm posting one here that was not used with the review.


This is Adrian Ducin in the role of James in La Sylphide. He's a very promising young soloist I singled out for discussion in the review.








I hope my review encourages some American visitors to central Europe to make the trip to Bratislava to see the company.

UPDATE-7/18/2008: I scanned the print review into a PDF file for my summer class, and posted it here: http://www.csulb.edu/~jvancamp/Slovak_review.pdf
