    Swan Lake: The Ballet Was Lit!

    Four words I’m surprised to say: The ballet was lit! After getting free tickets from a neighbor-friend, we saw the final night of BalletMet’s Swan Lake at the Ohio Theater in Columbus. Thoughts: 1) Everybody’s ripped. They got some skrong legs. 2) As a male ballerina, you gotta be confident in your man-print. 3) The motion is sort of like a well-run NBA offense 4) A couple of the ballet moves included minor twerking. Thanks to Amber for encouraging me to go. I almost sat this one out.

    They’re pretty serious about the no pictures policy, but I snapped this at the end. (Missing: The actual stars of the show.)
