 Male dancewear

I do not have a problem with terms danseur or dancer. I chose to use the spelling dancer quite like how you did. You started your posting with "...I am a dancer for ABT." So, please, do not chew me out about the choice of these terms.>I am not gay. Not all male dancers are gay ... it is only a sterotype about male ballet dancers. All I can say is clam down a little. You have just found this site. Help us with your input and make it a better site. I am sure you have valuable information with your experience at the American Ballet Theater (three years!) that can be share with other dancers at this site.>Dr. Dancebelt is not a pervert like some can be on this board. I choose to ignore the stupid stuff, such as this person call "balletboy" (sorry, balletboy, but it must be said that you can going on and on about the an inane issue such as putting oil or powder on the thong strap of a dancebelt, and grilling Dr. Dancebelt about it. That was a bit too much. He was patient and polite with his response. This is probably the reason why we have an upset poster with Dr. Dancebelt right now. Balletboy, become self-aware. You said that you were leaving and not coming back many times. ???)>On a point of grammar. First, the words in your posting, e.g., (a) "... sorry for this folks But I am ...", where is the punctuation here? You should have a comma after "folks" and use a lowercase "b" in the word "but", (b) "... emberass and disgust us you should just ...", You have incorrectly spelled embarrassed and should have used a period after "us". Second, "Men's Ballet costume Ideas" why are you using capitalization for certain words here? you could have written "men's costume ideas." Overuse of capitalization is not good. Do you know the rules on the use of capitalization? Like I said, you should use your spell check and perhaps consider a remedial English class to polish up your grammar.>I am at the BBS (Boston Ballet School) and we students perform with the Boston Ballet Company, sometimes. A principal male dancer from the ABT performed with the company and visited our school last year (he wore everything in the up position). Have you noticed that most male dancers do? Check with the principal male dancers with the ABT. Since you school there, ask them how a male "danseur" should wear his package.>PS. You could change your name from "Fullashit" to ... "ABT danseur". If I had been with ABT for three years, I would know by now how to properly position myself under a dancebelt. It beggars the imagination that a male dancer in such a prestigious environment as ABT could not have cottoned on to these particular basics, given the amount of time he has spent in coming up from his hometown studio to training at ABT and being accepted as a company member. (I am assuming that ABT Danseur is in fact a company member. It could well be that he has taken classes there for three years but is not actually among the elect who perform with the company.) Even if ABT Danseur's "technique" is unorthodox, it plainly works for him. It's the job of a dresser or other wardrobe person to tell a dancer, pre-performance, whether something is out of place. That this has not happened speaks for itself. Boston Danseur, I'm also a student at BBS, and it was Ethan Stiefel who was on loan from ABT for performances in Boston. I haven't been asked to be a super, so I don't get up-close and personal looks at company members and artists on loan like you do, apparently. Despite the knavery and just plain silliness that are the hallmarks of these Parsimony bulletin boards, I've learned a lot here. Still, most of my online time is spent elsewhere, at Critical Dance and Ballet Alert. If you want genuinely serious discussions of dance by, for and about bona fide dancers and dance students, those are the places to go. Whoa! How the time do fly. I've got classes tomorrow, plus I'm working the benefit. I expect you'll be at the Cyclorama? We'll probably run into each other (we may even know each other now). Two ships passing in the night. Cya round the campus. -E- Antworten zu diesem Beitrag: |
