    I've watched Olivia grow and become one of the most gifted dancers I have ever witnessed. She made dancing look like a breath of fresh air and so easy. It has been such a privilege to watch her transform herself into who she has become. Thank you for landing in Utah with Ballet West. 💜❤

    The ballet was beautiful and heart wrenching. I attended it last night and was deeply moved. I interpreted the woman in red and white as a representation of the warring nation itself, left ravished and barren in the aftermath of war. It was tragic to see the diplomats gleefully planning their next strategy at the green table again, unaffected by the death and damage their decisions cause, as cheerful melodies on the piano sounded throughout the hall.
