Nijinsky & the Sacre du printemps

  1. Kiersten, Its interesting to hear you say that the ballet could be symbolic or the tension of the upcoming war. I never thought about it that way but it does make sense. I understand the thought of how every one thinks the new style is wrong and the example of Rock 'N' Roll is exactly right. Not many people accept change willingly and will fight it as hard as they can. She always puts the topic of people not liking the new by how people react to Matisse's painting by trying to scratch the paint. The ballet could be reestablishing the issue of people hating change but also demonstrating the tension that is about to blow up in the war.
