I don't know what that is.
More of this.
This is a ballet that I never did.
It was by Leonor Figi, who's also a very interesting artist, an interesting painter, but I never did a ballet in this operation.
Well, this is Kadeem, George Kadeem, and Margot Toltzschild in Camille.
That was a very interesting story for a ballet.
That was an opera that I made in New York Ballet.
This is the same thing.
And that is very long.
That's the ballet that we're reviving now, to the music of Fledermaus.
You probably know that, Billy.
Now, if any of you wish to ask me any questions, think about now, because we haven't got much more time.
Oh, that's Fledermaus again.
That's Lars Ryskjenski and Rufusje Klikovic.
That's R.
M.
K.
and your teacher there.
He was wonderful in that part.
The best ballet you ever did, though, for me was Pygmalion.
I would love to revive that.
You were so funny in that.
He's a marvelous Pygmalion, your teacher.
And that's the stars costume in Fledermaus.
And that's Fledermaus also.
And this is Metastatola.
See, that's a very interesting thing.
I did a ballet called Metastatola.
It's supposed to be a man, but I meant the devil being a woman.
And Faust has been written.
There are three different composers who have written Faust stories.
Gounod and Boiteau and what more? Who? Berlioz.
Berlioz, yeah.
Good for you.
Those three composers have all written Faust ballets.
So I took the whole evening and took each composer.
Do you remember that ballet? I think it was interesting.
This is again Faust.
Again, Faust is a subject that you can do in all kinds of different ways.
This was at the opera.
We did a big ballet.
That's Dukovitch and Johnson.
This was the ballet at the Lyric Opera.
This also.
That's the Chocolate Soldier.
That's an amusing idea for ballet.
I don't know if you know that music has a wonderful score.
And we'd like to revive that.
This is the Chocolate Soldier also.
This is the Chocolate Soldier.
And this is Nutcracker.
Have any of you seen Nutcracker? Well, that has been running for 18 years and I think it will go on forever.
But that's the only thing I have that you can see live now.
Does anybody want to ask me anything? If not, we'll conclude.
I don't think there are any more pictures.
Oh, that's the Snow Valley in Nutcracker.
I love that valley.
I love the Snow Place.
Oh, this is Carmina Burana.
I guess you wouldn't have seen that.
That's Carmina Burana also.
So is this.
This is very modern, as you can see.
I really have done this very freely.
And this is Love and Death in Carmina Burana.
The little Cupid in the film of Death.
This is Romeo and Juliet.
And this is an interesting idea.
Those boys, those people you see there standing in the background, they form all the scenery.
They're the balcony and they're the deer here at the end.
It's an interesting idea.
I've never seen anybody do them like that.
You see how they form the scenery? So that's an easy valley to do because we don't need any scenery.
The boys have the scenery.
And we only need one girl, Juliet.
Then we have a Tiddled Mercutio and that's it.
And what is one of my best valleys? It's only half an hour long so you don't have time to get bored.
I don't know what that is.
Oh, this is Cthulhu Carmina.
This is the sequel to Carmina Burana.
And this is their very beautiful costumes.
It's the idea of the old men making fun of the young lovers.
And this valley I don't do.
I would like to do it again.
Oh, now this is our latest.
This is Alice in Wonderland.
And this is that lovely little Catherine Healy.
Maybe you've heard of her because she's taken so many prizes.
She's just turning 16.
And she's a wonderful little girl.
And I did this valley really for her.
And that's Warren Conover, the little white rabbit.
You can see what it's like.
That's the red and white queen with little Alice in the queen.
That's the red queen.
And they cook.
And they're on the kitchen.
Those are all the...
That's the kitchen where they're...
You can see they're cutting up.
Oh, this is the Jabberwocky, too.
That's an interesting costume.
This is done by Henri Del Faux.
And all the children love this.
They're cutting too and then walks off.
That's the queen of hearts.
And that's the lobster for drills.
This is a man -designed, if I remember.
Henri Del Faux.
I guess that's him.
Is that the one? Thank you.
I don't know how to take the out of all this.
I don't know how to take the out of all this.
Thank you.
I can't move.
How can I get out of this? You want to start me? Get me out of this? I don't know how many more.
Yeah, yeah, no.
Eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve.
Great.
Keep going.
It's all right.
We have more.
We can go up to at least 20.
Twelve.
All right, will everybody raise their hand and put the number up of tickets they want? I'll count fingers.
Two, four, six, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, sixteen, seventeen, eighteen, nineteen, twenty, twenty -one, twenty -two, twenty -three, twenty -four, twenty -five, twenty -six, twenty -eight.
All right.
Now, please listen to this because somebody has to be at the hall no later than a quarter of eight.
One person.
How about the teacher? Could you possibly be there by a quarter of eight and pick up all the tickets and then everybody comes to you at the, tomorrow night? Who is it? Bernbaum.
Baron Baum.
Daniel Baron -Born.
All right.
Can you pick them up? It's okay.
All right.
Well, I just wanted to make a point of thanking Ruth.
For those of you who have been in the schools since the beginning, you might remember that she helped give us advice when the school was starting and Ruth Page has given us a number of finances to do in our public showcases and lent us costumes from her company, and I think that's a real contribution that we've all benefited from.
Our students have learned a lot from Ruth.
And today is her birthday, this week for our Happy birthday dear Ruby, happy birthday to you.
Happy birthday to you.
Happy birthday dear Ruby.
Let's do it.
Happy birthday dear Ruby.
Happy birthday dear Ruby.

Oh, there he is.
He's talking about you.
The good stuff.
That'll be over here.
Well, Susan Abbott.
Just cut me a thin piece.
Yeah, I guess I want you to.
Alright, here's one.
Yeah, not that big.
Jeff, do you take this piece? I'm going to have to mention it up on the floor to you.
Show me.
Honey, I've got it.
Did you get a piece of cake? I've got a cake.
Happy birthday.
Happy birthday.
I'm thinking of going to the gym.
Why would you go? I don't know.
I need to go to the gym.
I don't remember.
I'm not sure.
No, no.
I came to the concerts that were every time.
The last two years before last.
And you had fire out.
There were two of us.
Next up, we have...
Oh, I thought this was all.
I thought it was your birthday.
Happy birthday.
Thank you.
That's a beautiful dress.
Congratulations.
Jamie! I see that it's less than that.
You don't work on it.
I'm going to get this on.
Yes, please.
Happy birthday.
Happy birthday.
Thank you.
Thank you very much.
Say happy birthday.
Happy birthday.
I hate funny babies.
I hate funny babies.
Can I just sign? Yes.
You can't shoot it that way.
It's really smearing.
So I can't shoot it that way.
I'm getting the lights and it's really smearing.
Anybody got a little piece? I don't know what to do.
I don't know what to do.

Can I ask a question? What? What is your high school? What is your high school? Dance and performance? Is it the Mood Cave School? Yeah.
What's the North American one? A or B.
I don't know if I said that.
Is it all your money or was it...
No, it was the Mood Cave School.
Really? You don't know what I should say.
