Ballet.  ($5, back balcony.)  Quite good.  Carmen, which is sort of a local cultural touchstone, and a Bolero.  The ballet here is very much of the place.  Lyric, modern-oriented.  Not the classical lyric of Mariinski or the austere abstract of NYCB, but a half modern/half classical vocabulary, very good at storytelling.  Extended critical piece TK, God willin' & the crick don't rise.
