I really liked this review, especially details about Von Enck and Phelan. I was at this performance, and agree with your comments. It was my first time seeing Von Enck in a leading role. As someone already said below, "ease, a major ingredient of charm" is a great description!

Jean Colonomos: I love this review of Christopher Wheeldon's "Carnival of Animals, its take on its "cheekiness." I laughed at the image of "Everyone seems to salute every five seconds." I appreciate the visual details Marina Harss gives the reader. For me, I could "see" many of the ballet's moment, though I live on the West Coast.
