We are developing the rose in Beauty & the Beast and need a way for it to be floating and sheading each individual petal. Suggestions? How is it done in NYC? How have other community/ schools done it?

Posted: 2/8/06 at 7:24pmAren't you referring to rose "petals"? A "pedal" and a "petal" are substantially different.

Dollypop and RumTumTugger22...
Both of your posts were very funny! thanks for the laugh : )
"...But Kungurtseva reels off multiple fouettes and the tape is stopped so she can take a bow. The Jester, an abomination introduced to Swan Lake in Soviet times, extorts applause from the audience. The cuts don't help the storytelling, the production is bare bones and they go for the '50s-style happy ending.
The audience cheers like mad at the end. It's the Russian ballet, after all..."
