  2. FLASH FOOTAGE // Principal Dancer Mira Nadon’s debut in the Red Angels role originated by former Principal Darci Kistler. “I’ve wondered whether Ulysses [Dove] knew and was thinking about, at least on some level, Rilke’s poems about angels, the Duino Elegies,” reflected composer Richard Einhorn during our recent interview on the score for Red Angels. “The angels in Rilke’s poems are awesome creatures, not these white, flippy-floppy winged creatures; they’re incredibly strong, intense, supernatural forces as much as natural forces. I have no idea if Ulysses read Rilke at all, but it’s that kind of an angel I’m sure he had in mind.” Experience the singular work while it is still onstage, through May 25 on the Contemporary Choreography I program. #nycb75th @mira_nadon #miranadon @madmarystavern #maryrowell #redangels #richardeinhorn #maxwellsdemon #ulyssesdove #ballet #ballerina #pointeshoes #dance #nycb #nycballet #newyorkcityballet

  1. And with that... the 2023 Nutcracker season comes to an end! ❄️ 🩵👑 Huge thank you to everyone that came from near and far to see me! This year people flew in from Vegas, LA, New York City, Texas, and so many other places to watch me perform! It fills my heart to have your continual support❤️ To all the kiddos at PBT... I couldn't have done it without YOU! Whether it was giving me hugs before going onstage, cheering for me as I walked offstage, or just chit chatting backstage... I've cherished every moment of it! I get so sad when Nutcracker comes to an end, because that means I won't get to hang out with you all every day anymore:( Thank you students of @pittsburghballettheatreschool for inspiring me! More posts coming soon! 😊

  1. Wendy Whelan & Damian Woetzel in a portion of the original 1954 version of “The Nutcracker”, early 1990s. This incredible series, the Balanchine Interpreters Archive, preserves the original intent, musicality, and nuances that were adjusted by Balanchine over time. Some ballets in this series were “lost”and meticulously reconstructed by the Interpreters. Maria Tallchief, the first Sugarplum Fairy of Balanchine’s version, keeps a very watchful eye #wendywhelan #balanchine #thenutcracker #nycb #kurtfroman #balletarchive @wendyw

  2. One of my happiest times as a dancer was my first Broadway show, “Movin’ Out”. The talent involved was just thrilling, and I was honored to be a part of the family. Here are two of my favorite cast mates, Elizabeth Parkinson & Keith Roberts, and Michael Cavanaugh as the Piano Man, in “Shameless” performing at the 2004 US Open. @elizparkdance #elizabethparkinson #michaelcavanaugh @cavanaugh_music #keithroberts @kroberts35 #twylatharp @twylatharp @billyjoel #billyjoel #movinout #movinoutbroadway #kurtfroman #balletarchive *Thanks @iancarney8 for the footage!!!

  1. NEUROTICMOM FINALLY GOT THE BLUE CHECK!!!!!!

  2. Not gonna lie, I’m really excited for this new space! Neuroticmom happened accidentally and it evolved and grew over time. Because it wasn’t planned, I would purchase new baking items as needed then chuck them in a drawer or cupboard somewhere. Over the last three years it became an organized DISASTER! (only organized because I knew exactly where everything was even though each drawer and cupboard was a total and complete mess! 🙈) But now I have had time to organize every last little detail and I’m truly excited to start baking and decorating cakes again.

  3. WE GOT THE HOUSE! And all I know is I am in love with that yellow door. 💛 We didn’t get to pick any of the finishes but I don’t care. I love it and I can live in it comfortably until our *other* house is done. This house will be fully completed in January, including the basement. (It has a loft, too!) Check out the new NEUROTICMOM kitchen!

  1. a compilation of lil vids i’ve taken in the past year at the grow. although, i spend most of my time doing operational duties now (compared to 3 years ago where i spent 70% of my time in grow rooms), i’ll always carve out time to play with the plants ❤️ @lester_farms

  2. as we fight for social and racial justice, we must also fight for cannabis justice. i recognize my privilege to be in this space and i want to spread more awareness of this issue that can’t be left out of the conversation today. equity is not a trend. we’ve been fighting against this before the war on drugs began and it is our duty to keep the momentum up by starting the conversation and supporting cannabis businesses that stand for / promote racial justice. how do you know which cannabis companies are here for the movement and beyond? find the accountability list at @cannaclusive. for more information on the war on drugs and creating a more equitable industry, follow: @lastprisonerproject @nationallawyersguild @thisis.ourdream @aclu_nationwide @equityorg @equityfirst_ @cannaclusive @broccolimag #blacklivesmatter #warondrugs #cannabisjusticeisracialjustice let’s say it together now: the u.s prison system is legalized slavery.

  1. 10/13/22: Der Rosenkavalier of George Balanchine’s Vienna Waltzes with @robbiefairchild ♥️. Our final debut. Last June, I had a dream that I was dancing the last waltz in Vienna Waltzes and I thought, “How strange!” and then I felt my partner take my waist and I looked up and it was Robbie. I was shocked in my dream that it was him because we had not danced together in almost 5 years. I woke up with a soaked pillow of tears. Then, this dream reoccurred two more times over the course of the summer; so, I decided to ask for permission to make it a reality, a dream come true. And my wish was granted @nycballet last night 🙏. It was a fairytale and, yet, it was a homecoming. Not sure I have really been able to process it all but I know that I am still smiling!! Now, on to my final repertoire show where I dance with two more partners who I also love so very dearly @adrianclay ♥️ and @andiev1 ♥️ I am one lucky lady! #letspresent #balanchine #strauss #karinska #ballet #ballerina #closure #farewell 1st Photo credit: Paul Kolnik

  2. Moving right along! 🥑 I am so excited for, by far, the most challenging and rewarding role of my life with my love @rbbailes ♥️. Taking my first break from dancing in my 17 year career @nycballet has been full of so many interesting, positive feelings. Also, my hat will forever be tipped to the amazing dancers of such a sublime ballet company. I keep thinking, “Wow, they are STILL dancing right now” at various times throughout the week. I became unaware of how many hours we spend in that theatre to create the art that is a lifeline for each of us as well as carry on a legacy we are all so passionate about. So very much to be grateful for in my life!! #gratitude #momtobe #newlife #ballerina #ballerinamom

  3. For many months now, it has felt like so much in this dance world I have called my home and dedicated so much of my life, energy and vulnerability to has crumpled around me. I’d be lying if I said that I don’t feel deeply sad about the past several months. There is only one light that I can see and it’s my genuine love to dance. I never dreamed of being a ballerina when I was a little girl, it was New York City Ballet that made me want to be a ballerina and only once I had already become a teenager; but, I’ve always been steadfast in my love to dance. As @nycballet begins its Fall Season on Tuesday, I will hold fast to that knowledge of myself in order to reach from within to dance my heart out for our audience and for anyone who simply loves to dance.
