I really hate the upperroom, it is the most terrible ballet ever made!!!!

It is a very nice performance. I like this gentle dance, the lighting.Though I like their dresses,too,I can`t decide if I like the idea with red socks.They stick out too much. Music is putting me to sleep.I like the ending when they disappear in the darkness very much.

Usually I am very anti-Twyla/anti-modern (super classical freak that I am). However, I actually ADORE "In the Upper Room". Although, I DO hate the coustumes. Ah well, you can't have everything...

have you ever seen ABT do this?

yes, boston ballet has smoke in the back too and when the dancers come out it looks like they just appear from nowhere. because of the smoke. i love the whole effect.

i have seen this live twice and it is absolutely amazing. i'm not sure if other ballet companies do this but american ballet theater has smoke going in the background which really adds a interesting effect.
