First Position LI::"This (and Mostly) That": "[Ballet Russes] is a vivid history of the institution that shaped so much of our thinking about dance in the 20th century," Allan Ulrich, Nov 3, 2005

First Position L:"Heritage Today, Gone Tomorrow": "...called into question here is an entire generation of American ballets, an important part of what I would dare to call our American heritage.
