Tia, I do in the end agree with you. I think it’s hard to keep Balanchine’s esthetic as a conpamy mission and then make a left turn into the museum piece ballets. According to Suzanne Farrell, Balanchine wanted to do The Sleeping Beauty , but he wanted to do it after the Happily Ever After to her prince. I bet that would have been some ballet!
