How did this ever fly? A ballet that ends with people walking up stairs. To quite possibly the most beautiful 2 minutes ever to close a masterpiece. How was Stravinsky OK with this?

Enter this stupid play. Oh? It is choreography? What the hell? It is the most anti-climactic thing I’ve ever seen on a stage with perhaps the exception of German performance art. And to the The Firebird closing minutes which are almost Divine at least angelic.
Every time I look at this I feel a little less guilty about slapping Fokine’s great-granddaughter in her face at a German bar . I didn’t do that but it would have been funny right?

This choreography is like the equivalent of watching people loading groceries into a minivan.
