Is Kidd Pivot a Canadian Company?
Howdy!
Kidd Pivot Frankfurt RM got a nice review in yesterday's New York Times. I get a kick out of the line "East Coast premiere." And the fact that they dance to Voltaire... But why Montclair, NJ?
And in case you're interested a second (much longer) review by Tobi Tobias.

RubberBanDance in Florida
Howdy!
A fairly generic preview piece on Victor Quijada from the Bradenton Herald by January Holmes (shhh, don't mention the typo...) because RuberBanDance is going to be performing at the Ringling International Arts Festival Thursday through Sunday.
If there's a review, I'll post it here as well - but don't hold your breath.

Interesting Marketing by Les Grands Ballets Canadiens
Howdy!
It kind of jumped out at me as I walked out of the coffee shop where I hang out sometimes...
Les Grands Ballets Canadiens had thrown some serious cash at Nightlife magazine (now rebranded to included the dot ca). Both an insert, and and fancy two-page advertisement with a card attached.
But someone needs to do some proof-reading for them, the insert offers discounts of up to 30%, while the card offers a discount of 40%. Hmmmm...
To that you can then add this way upscale video
Which, if I understand correctly is designed as amoney making cash grab fund raiser for Les Grands Ballets Canadiens. It appears to be aimed squarely at wealthy individuals who wouldn't want to associate with the hoi poloi. But what are the under 30s they are trying to target above, but the hoi poloi?
Hmmmm... We're going to have to keep an eye on this turn of events. It'll be interesting to see how this sudden surge in marketing works out.
