1
00:00:04.840 --> 00:00:07.260
I don't know what that is.

2
00:00:09.140 --> 00:00:09.500
More of this.

3
00:00:09.500 --> 00:00:11.460
This is a ballet that I never did.

4
00:00:11.580 --> 00:00:15.980
It was by Leonor Figi, who's also a very interesting artist, an interesting painter,

5
00:00:16.180 --> 00:00:18.140
but I never did a ballet in this operation.

6
00:00:19.800 --> 00:00:26.060
Well, this is Kadeem, George Kadeem, and Margot Toltzschild in Camille.

7
00:00:26.080 --> 00:00:28.280
That was a very interesting story for a ballet.

8
00:00:28.280 --> 00:00:30.540
That was an opera that I made in New York Ballet.

9
00:00:32.720 --> 00:00:34.180
This is the same thing.

10
00:00:35.560 --> 00:00:37.480
And that is very long.

11
00:00:37.760 --> 00:00:41.200
That's the ballet that we're reviving now, to the music of Fledermaus.

12
00:00:41.220 --> 00:00:42.680
You probably know that, Billy.

13
00:00:42.800 --> 00:00:49.780
Now, if any of you wish to ask me any questions, think about now, because we haven't got much more time.

14
00:00:51.940 --> 00:00:53.320
Oh, that's Fledermaus again.

15
00:00:53.380 --> 00:00:55.700
That's Lars Ryskjenski and Rufusje Klikovic.

16
00:00:55.860 --> 00:00:57.640
That's R. M. K. and your teacher there.

17
00:00:57.640 --> 00:00:59.460
He was wonderful in that part.

18
00:00:59.700 --> 00:01:02.840
The best ballet you ever did, though, for me was Pygmalion.

19
00:01:03.060 --> 00:01:04.220
I would love to revive that.

20
00:01:04.220 --> 00:01:05.500
You were so funny in that.

21
00:01:05.560 --> 00:01:07.420
He's a marvelous Pygmalion, your teacher.

22
00:01:09.720 --> 00:01:13.840
And that's the stars costume in Fledermaus.

23
00:01:16.320 --> 00:01:18.000
And that's Fledermaus also.

24
00:01:19.400 --> 00:01:20.940
And this is Metastatola.

25
00:01:21.800 --> 00:01:23.880
See, that's a very interesting thing.

26
00:01:24.620 --> 00:01:26.860
I did a ballet called Metastatola.

27
00:01:26.860 --> 00:01:30.700
It's supposed to be a man, but I meant the devil being a woman.

28
00:01:32.680 --> 00:01:34.620
And Faust has been written.

29
00:01:35.660 --> 00:01:39.320
There are three different composers who have written Faust stories.

30
00:01:41.060 --> 00:01:45.040
Gounod and Boiteau and what more?

31
00:01:46.020 --> 00:01:46.220
Who?

32
00:01:47.960 --> 00:01:48.640
Berlioz.

33
00:01:48.800 --> 00:01:49.860
Berlioz, yeah.

34
00:01:50.020 --> 00:01:50.520
Good for you.

35
00:01:50.880 --> 00:01:54.140
Those three composers have all written Faust ballets.

36
00:01:54.140 --> 00:01:58.400
So I took the whole evening and took each composer.

37
00:01:58.960 --> 00:02:00.000
Do you remember that ballet?

38
00:02:00.560 --> 00:02:01.400
I think it was interesting.

39
00:02:04.160 --> 00:02:05.920
This is again Faust.

40
00:02:06.540 --> 00:02:10.120
Again, Faust is a subject that you can do in all kinds of different ways.

41
00:02:11.380 --> 00:02:12.640
This was at the opera.

42
00:02:13.320 --> 00:02:14.760
We did a big ballet.

43
00:02:17.200 --> 00:02:18.800
That's Dukovitch and Johnson.

44
00:02:22.040 --> 00:02:25.080
This was the ballet at the Lyric Opera.

45
00:02:27.720 --> 00:02:28.660
This also.

46
00:02:30.200 --> 00:02:31.200
That's the Chocolate Soldier.

47
00:02:31.580 --> 00:02:33.320
That's an amusing idea for ballet.

48
00:02:33.540 --> 00:02:35.980
I don't know if you know that music has a wonderful score.

49
00:02:36.760 --> 00:02:37.960
And we'd like to revive that.

50
00:02:38.000 --> 00:02:39.920
This is the Chocolate Soldier also.

51
00:02:40.660 --> 00:02:42.040
This is the Chocolate Soldier.

52
00:02:43.740 --> 00:02:45.680
And this is Nutcracker.

53
00:02:45.680 --> 00:02:48.320
Have any of you seen Nutcracker?

54
00:02:48.920 --> 00:02:54.900
Well, that has been running for 18 years and I think it will go on forever.

55
00:02:56.340 --> 00:02:59.680
But that's the only thing I have that you can see live now.

56
00:03:01.060 --> 00:03:02.360
Does anybody want to ask me anything?

57
00:03:03.100 --> 00:03:04.560
If not, we'll conclude.

58
00:03:05.300 --> 00:03:06.480
I don't think there are any more pictures.

59
00:03:06.720 --> 00:03:10.140
Oh, that's the Snow Valley in Nutcracker.

60
00:03:10.420 --> 00:03:11.440
I love that valley.

61
00:03:12.660 --> 00:03:13.700
I love the Snow Place.

62
00:03:13.700 --> 00:03:16.320
Oh, this is Carmina Burana.

63
00:03:18.740 --> 00:03:21.460
I guess you wouldn't have seen that.

64
00:03:24.480 --> 00:03:26.760
That's Carmina Burana also.

65
00:03:27.740 --> 00:03:28.880
So is this.

66
00:03:30.220 --> 00:03:32.140
This is very modern, as you can see.

67
00:03:32.220 --> 00:03:34.140
I really have done this very freely.

68
00:03:35.280 --> 00:03:37.740
And this is Love and Death in Carmina Burana.

69
00:03:38.200 --> 00:03:40.000
The little Cupid in the film of Death.

70
00:03:41.120 --> 00:03:43.220
This is Romeo and Juliet.

71
00:03:44.340 --> 00:03:46.580
And this is an interesting idea.

72
00:03:46.820 --> 00:03:51.100
Those boys, those people you see there standing in the background,

73
00:03:52.120 --> 00:03:53.860
they form all the scenery.

74
00:03:54.300 --> 00:03:57.560
They're the balcony and they're the deer here at the end.

75
00:03:58.220 --> 00:04:00.060
It's an interesting idea.

76
00:04:00.180 --> 00:04:02.120
I've never seen anybody do them like that.

77
00:04:04.000 --> 00:04:06.820
You see how they form the scenery?

78
00:04:08.220 --> 00:04:11.460
So that's an easy valley to do because we don't need any scenery.

79
00:04:11.660 --> 00:04:12.820
The boys have the scenery.

80
00:04:13.100 --> 00:04:14.880
And we only need one girl, Juliet.

81
00:04:15.320 --> 00:04:18.060
Then we have a Tiddled Mercutio and that's it.

82
00:04:19.180 --> 00:04:20.580
And what is one of my best valleys?

83
00:04:20.720 --> 00:04:23.400
It's only half an hour long so you don't have time to get bored.

84
00:04:25.980 --> 00:04:26.980
I don't know what that is.

85
00:04:27.840 --> 00:04:29.600
Oh, this is Cthulhu Carmina.

86
00:04:29.620 --> 00:04:31.540
This is the sequel to Carmina Burana.

87
00:04:32.580 --> 00:04:34.940
And this is their very beautiful costumes.

88
00:04:34.940 --> 00:04:41.260
It's the idea of the old men making fun of the young lovers.

89
00:04:42.400 --> 00:04:44.040
And this valley I don't do.

90
00:04:44.120 --> 00:04:45.380
I would like to do it again.

91
00:04:47.520 --> 00:04:49.120
Oh, now this is our latest.

92
00:04:49.540 --> 00:04:50.940
This is Alice in Wonderland.

93
00:04:52.120 --> 00:04:54.040
And this is that lovely little Catherine Healy.

94
00:04:54.200 --> 00:04:57.100
Maybe you've heard of her because she's taken so many prizes.

95
00:04:57.420 --> 00:04:59.100
She's just turning 16.

96
00:04:59.440 --> 00:05:01.260
And she's a wonderful little girl.

97
00:05:01.260 --> 00:05:04.800
And I did this valley really for her.

98
00:05:05.140 --> 00:05:07.620
And that's Warren Conover, the little white rabbit.

99
00:05:09.900 --> 00:05:11.080
You can see what it's like.

100
00:05:11.540 --> 00:05:14.800
That's the red and white queen with little Alice in the queen.

101
00:05:17.080 --> 00:05:18.300
That's the red queen.

102
00:05:19.660 --> 00:05:20.680
And they cook.

103
00:05:23.340 --> 00:05:25.500
And they're on the kitchen.

104
00:05:26.260 --> 00:05:27.180
Those are all the...

105
00:05:27.180 --> 00:05:29.260
That's the kitchen where they're...

106
00:05:29.260 --> 00:05:30.260
You can see they're cutting up.

107
00:05:32.200 --> 00:05:34.240
Oh, this is the Jabberwocky, too.

108
00:05:34.480 --> 00:05:35.840
That's an interesting costume.

109
00:05:35.920 --> 00:05:37.800
This is done by Henri Del Faux.

110
00:05:39.900 --> 00:05:42.340
And all the children love this.

111
00:05:42.620 --> 00:05:45.200
They're cutting too and then walks off.

112
00:05:46.520 --> 00:05:47.920
That's the queen of hearts.

113
00:05:49.260 --> 00:05:50.780
And that's the lobster for drills.

114
00:05:53.040 --> 00:05:54.920
This is a man-designed, if I remember.

115
00:05:55.820 --> 00:05:56.760
Henri Del Faux.

116
00:05:57.820 --> 00:05:59.380
I guess that's him.

117
00:05:59.940 --> 00:06:00.640
Is that the one?

118
00:06:04.940 --> 00:06:06.060
Thank you.

119
00:06:06.940 --> 00:06:08.900
I don't know how to take the out of all this.

120
00:06:15.700 --> 00:06:19.080
I don't know how to take the out of all this.

121
00:06:23.340 --> 00:06:24.180
Thank you.

122
00:06:24.180 --> 00:06:29.640
I can't move.

123
00:06:30.440 --> 00:06:31.780
How can I get out of this?

124
00:06:32.280 --> 00:06:33.560
You want to start me?

125
00:06:33.880 --> 00:06:34.500
Get me out of this?

126
00:06:35.100 --> 00:06:36.260
I don't know how many more.

127
00:06:36.500 --> 00:06:37.700
Yeah, yeah, no.

128
00:06:41.780 --> 00:06:45.280
Eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve.

129
00:06:46.280 --> 00:06:46.660
Great.

130
00:06:50.360 --> 00:06:51.420
Keep going.

131
00:06:51.860 --> 00:06:52.500
It's all right.

132
00:06:52.500 --> 00:06:53.440
We have more.

133
00:06:53.700 --> 00:06:55.060
We can go up to at least 20.

134
00:06:56.020 --> 00:06:56.500
Twelve.

135
00:06:56.940 --> 00:06:58.680
All right, will everybody raise their hand

136
00:06:58.680 --> 00:07:01.100
and put the number up of tickets they want?

137
00:07:01.320 --> 00:07:02.180
I'll count fingers.

138
00:07:03.980 --> 00:07:08.280
Two, four, six, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve,

139
00:07:08.280 --> 00:07:11.200
thirteen, fourteen, sixteen, seventeen, eighteen,

140
00:07:11.800 --> 00:07:13.540
nineteen, twenty, twenty-one, twenty-two,

141
00:07:13.560 --> 00:07:16.920
twenty-three, twenty-four, twenty-five,

142
00:07:17.160 --> 00:07:18.240
twenty-six, twenty-eight.

143
00:07:19.220 --> 00:07:20.120
All right.

144
00:07:20.120 --> 00:07:26.120
Now, please listen to this because somebody has to be

145
00:07:26.120 --> 00:07:30.100
at the hall no later than a quarter of eight.

146
00:07:30.240 --> 00:07:31.100
One person.

147
00:07:31.100 --> 00:07:32.300
How about the teacher?

148
00:07:32.880 --> 00:07:35.200
Could you possibly be there by a quarter of eight

149
00:07:35.200 --> 00:07:37.680
and pick up all the tickets and then everybody comes

150
00:07:37.680 --> 00:07:39.420
to you at the, tomorrow night?

151
00:07:39.520 --> 00:07:40.040
Who is it?

152
00:07:40.620 --> 00:07:41.140
Bernbaum.

153
00:07:41.500 --> 00:07:42.080
Baron Baum.

154
00:07:42.280 --> 00:07:43.100
Daniel Baron-Born.

155
00:07:43.520 --> 00:07:44.060
All right.

156
00:07:44.200 --> 00:07:45.200
Can you pick them up?

157
00:07:45.500 --> 00:07:46.320
It's okay.

158
00:07:46.840 --> 00:07:47.480
All right.

159
00:07:50.380 --> 00:07:55.000
Well, I just wanted to make a point of thanking Ruth.

160
00:07:55.920 --> 00:07:57.320
For those of you who have been in the schools

161
00:07:57.320 --> 00:07:59.720
since the beginning, you might remember that she

162
00:07:59.720 --> 00:08:02.300
helped give us advice when the school was starting

163
00:08:02.300 --> 00:08:05.060
and Ruth Page has given us a number of finances

164
00:08:05.060 --> 00:08:08.940
to do in our public showcases and lent us costumes

165
00:08:08.940 --> 00:08:12.940
from her company, and I think that's a real contribution

166
00:08:12.940 --> 00:08:14.600
that we've all benefited from.

167
00:08:14.760 --> 00:08:16.320
Our students have learned a lot from Ruth.

168
00:08:30.500 --> 00:08:46.300
And today is her birthday, this week for our

169
00:08:46.300 --> 00:08:46.300


170
00:08:46.300 --> 00:08:58.300
Happy birthday dear Ruby, happy birthday to you.

171
00:09:26.640 --> 00:09:26.960
Happy birthday to you.

172
00:09:55.400 --> 00:09:58.300
Happy birthday dear Ruby.

173
00:09:58.320 --> 00:09:59.400
Let's do it.

174
00:10:28.320 --> 00:10:32.240
Happy birthday dear Ruby.

175
00:11:19.380 --> 00:11:26.560
Happy birthday dear Ruby.

176
00:11:28.320 --> 00:11:54.400
Happy birthday dear Ruby.

177
00:12:05.040 --> 00:12:26.560
Happy birthday dear Ruby.

178
00:12:28.320 --> 00:12:28.320


179
00:12:33.320 --> 00:12:35.960
Oh, there he is.

180
00:12:36.640 --> 00:12:38.240
He's talking about you.

181
00:12:38.760 --> 00:12:39.540
The good stuff.

182
00:12:40.280 --> 00:12:41.440
That'll be over here.

183
00:12:48.880 --> 00:12:52.800
Well, Susan Abbott.

184
00:12:56.660 --> 00:12:58.460
Just cut me a thin piece.

185
00:12:59.260 --> 00:13:01.140
Yeah, I guess I want you to.

186
00:13:01.380 --> 00:13:02.600
Alright, here's one.

187
00:13:03.260 --> 00:13:04.400
Yeah, not that big.

188
00:13:12.340 --> 00:13:13.720
Jeff, do you take this piece?

189
00:13:14.780 --> 00:13:17.540
I'm going to have to mention it up on the floor to you.

190
00:13:21.320 --> 00:13:22.680
Show me.

191
00:13:23.980 --> 00:13:23.980


192
00:13:32.500 --> 00:13:38.560
Honey, I've got it.

193
00:13:39.020 --> 00:13:40.060
Did you get a piece of cake?

194
00:13:40.340 --> 00:13:41.240
I've got a cake.

195
00:13:41.820 --> 00:13:43.200
Happy birthday.

196
00:13:43.200 --> 00:13:43.320
Happy birthday.

197
00:13:44.160 --> 00:13:46.920
I'm thinking of going to the gym.

198
00:13:47.360 --> 00:13:48.080
Why would you go?

199
00:13:48.080 --> 00:13:49.220
I don't know.

200
00:13:51.160 --> 00:13:52.840
I need to go to the gym.

201
00:13:52.960 --> 00:13:53.820
I don't remember.

202
00:13:53.960 --> 00:13:55.720
I'm not sure.

203
00:13:56.200 --> 00:13:58.460
No, no.

204
00:13:58.720 --> 00:14:02.920
I came to the concerts that were every time.

205
00:14:03.200 --> 00:14:04.760
The last two years before last.

206
00:14:05.340 --> 00:14:06.540
And you had fire out.

207
00:14:07.300 --> 00:14:08.100
There were two of us.

208
00:14:09.040 --> 00:14:11.140
Next up, we have...

209
00:14:11.140 --> 00:14:12.360
Oh, I thought this was all.

210
00:14:12.540 --> 00:14:13.700
I thought it was your birthday.

211
00:14:15.920 --> 00:14:17.000
Happy birthday.

212
00:14:17.600 --> 00:14:18.780
Thank you.

213
00:14:19.320 --> 00:14:20.660
That's a beautiful dress.

214
00:14:22.060 --> 00:14:22.460
Congratulations.

215
00:14:25.420 --> 00:14:25.960
Jamie!

216
00:14:30.800 --> 00:14:32.780
I see that it's less than that.

217
00:14:32.940 --> 00:14:33.840
You don't work on it.

218
00:14:41.140 --> 00:14:42.760
I'm going to get this on.

219
00:14:43.260 --> 00:14:43.840
Yes, please.

220
00:14:45.980 --> 00:14:47.220
Happy birthday.

221
00:14:48.840 --> 00:14:49.700
Happy birthday.

222
00:14:49.860 --> 00:14:50.860
Thank you.

223
00:14:51.780 --> 00:14:52.740
Thank you very much.

224
00:14:59.300 --> 00:15:01.180
Say happy birthday.

225
00:15:02.520 --> 00:15:03.040
Happy birthday.

226
00:15:04.520 --> 00:15:06.020
I hate funny babies.

227
00:15:08.980 --> 00:15:09.940
I hate funny babies.

228
00:15:09.940 --> 00:15:09.940


229
00:15:09.940 --> 00:15:10.300
Can I just sign?

230
00:15:21.760 --> 00:15:22.160
Yes.

231
00:15:23.180 --> 00:15:24.520
You can't shoot it that way.

232
00:15:24.760 --> 00:15:25.560
It's really smearing.

233
00:15:26.560 --> 00:15:27.600
So I can't shoot it that way.

234
00:15:27.780 --> 00:15:29.340
I'm getting the lights and it's really smearing.

235
00:16:08.520 --> 00:16:09.920
Anybody got a little piece?

236
00:18:12.020 --> 00:18:14.320
I don't know what to do.

237
00:18:15.340 --> 00:18:17.300
I don't know what to do.

238
00:18:18.020 --> 00:18:19.260
I don't know what to do.

239
00:18:21.480 --> 00:18:22.980
I don't know what to do.

240
00:18:23.160 --> 00:18:23.900
I don't know what to do.

241
00:18:24.340 --> 00:18:24.340


242
00:18:24.520 --> 00:18:24.520


243
00:18:25.120 --> 00:18:25.740
I don't know what to do.

244
00:18:26.440 --> 00:18:26.840
I don't know what to do.

245
00:18:27.760 --> 00:18:29.060
Oh, baby.

246
00:18:29.620 --> 00:18:30.060
Hi, baby.

247
00:18:31.200 --> 00:18:32.300
How are you?

248
00:18:34.740 --> 00:18:36.060
Oh, don't get me.

249
00:18:36.060 --> 00:18:36.680
Don't get me.

250
00:18:36.680 --> 00:18:37.520
I'm so bored.

251
00:18:38.260 --> 00:18:39.260
I'm so bored.

252
00:18:54.400 --> 00:18:56.640
I'm old.

253
00:19:02.180 --> 00:19:03.540
I'm old.

254
00:19:05.140 --> 00:19:05.600
I'm old.

255
00:19:06.940 --> 00:19:08.460
I'm old.

256
00:19:08.900 --> 00:19:09.240
I'm old.

257
00:19:09.240 --> 00:19:09.240


258
00:19:09.240 --> 00:19:09.240


259
00:19:09.240 --> 00:19:09.980
Oh, these are the ladies.

260
00:19:11.220 --> 00:19:11.980
Don't get me.

261
00:19:11.980 --> 00:19:12.020
They're famous.

262
00:19:12.020 --> 00:19:13.460
It's not the ladies.

263
00:19:14.340 --> 00:19:15.700
Don't get me.

264
00:19:15.960 --> 00:19:16.420
No?

265
00:19:22.500 --> 00:19:23.980
Yes, with the girls.

266
00:19:26.300 --> 00:19:29.660
Oh, he's actually, he's the one who's got the most friends.

267
00:19:30.940 --> 00:19:32.820
He's the one who takes the most time.

268
00:19:33.720 --> 00:19:37.460
He's the one who takes the most time.

269
00:19:37.580 --> 00:19:37.940
He's the one who takes the most time.

270
00:19:40.120 --> 00:19:40.880
He's the one who takes the most time.

271
00:19:41.240 --> 00:19:43.380
I don't think I'm going to be able to change the way I work.

272
00:19:45.600 --> 00:19:46.960
I'm working in the dance room.

273
00:19:47.800 --> 00:19:50.580
I'm working in the dance room and singing and everything.

274
00:19:50.580 --> 00:19:52.480
I'm working in the dance room.

275
00:19:55.820 --> 00:19:56.400
I'm working in the dance room.

276
00:19:58.680 --> 00:19:59.940
I'm working in the dance room.

277
00:20:00.020 --> 00:20:02.140
I'm working in the dance room.

278
00:20:02.140 --> 00:20:02.200
I'm working in the dance room.

279
00:20:03.320 --> 00:20:04.100
I'm working in the dance room.

280
00:20:04.120 --> 00:20:04.640
I'm working in the dance room.

281
00:20:07.640 --> 00:20:08.640
I'm working in the dance room.

282
00:20:11.000 --> 00:20:12.180
I'm working in the dance room.

283
00:20:12.180 --> 00:20:14.000
And he said,

284
00:20:14.760 --> 00:20:19.020
And I think that's the only thing he's ever really great at.

285
00:20:19.720 --> 00:20:22.120
And I think that's the only thing he's ever really great at.

286
00:20:23.640 --> 00:20:24.620
The world?

287
00:20:25.240 --> 00:20:25.660
The world?

288
00:20:27.800 --> 00:20:30.460
I have to do all the work that I can.

289
00:20:31.360 --> 00:20:32.060
I have to do all the work that I can.

290
00:20:32.060 --> 00:20:33.740
But I want to be careful.

291
00:20:36.260 --> 00:20:37.580
I'm very careful.

292
00:20:37.580 --> 00:20:39.200
I'm very careful.

293
00:20:39.740 --> 00:20:40.360
I'm very careful.

294
00:20:43.540 --> 00:20:46.020
Can I ask a question?

295
00:20:46.800 --> 00:20:47.660
What?

296
00:20:47.660 --> 00:20:48.980
What is your high school?

297
00:20:49.540 --> 00:20:52.040
What is your high school?

298
00:20:52.660 --> 00:20:53.420
Dance and performance?

299
00:20:54.900 --> 00:20:56.860
Is it the Mood Cave School?

300
00:20:57.580 --> 00:20:57.680
Yeah.

301
00:21:00.180 --> 00:21:01.900
What's the North American one?

302
00:21:02.500 --> 00:21:03.380
A or B.

303
00:21:03.700 --> 00:21:05.100
I don't know if I said that.

304
00:21:05.780 --> 00:21:09.300
Is it all your money or was it...

305
00:21:09.300 --> 00:21:10.820
No, it was the Mood Cave School.

306
00:21:12.040 --> 00:21:12.520
Really?

307
00:21:14.500 --> 00:21:16.180
You don't know what I should say.
