I just liked the tone of your piece. I deeply love both Prokofiev and Mark Morris, so it's hard to imagine that there won't be much to love in this upcoming performance. I saw a few negative reviews of the ballet online (e.g. our local San Francisco Chronicle critic), so I was especially glad to read yours.<BR/> <BR/>And, as a side note, I also loved the photo of you and your "friend" (S.O.?) on your web site. I'm of a certain age, and you two just look so happy and vibrant. Reminding the world that we who have been around for a while can have just as much fun as 20-somethings. So there! Keep disseminating said photo. :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19217611.post-68286807445512570612008-07-10T11:44:00.000-04:002008-07-10T11:44:00.000-04:00My thoughts exactly.

I absolutely adored every minute of the MMDG performance! Bravo!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
