Broadway, Balanchine, and Beyond: A MemoirIn this memoir of a roller coaster career on the New York stage, former actor and dancer Bettijane Sills offers a highly personal look at the art and practice of George Balanchine, one of ballet's greatest choreographers, and the inner workings of his world renowned company during its golden years.

In this memoir of a roller coaster career on the New York stage, former actor and dancer Bettijane Sills offers a highly personal look at the art and practice of George Balanchine, one of ballet's greatest choreographers, and the inner workings of his world-renowned company during its golden years. After getting her start on the stage as a child actor on Broadway, Bettijane Sills joined the New York City Ballet in 1961 as a member of the corps de ballet, working her way up to the level of soloist. As a company dancer who remained outside the spotlight that the principals enjoyed, Sills experienced a side of the company that prima ballerinas did not share in. She tells stories of taking class with Balanchine, dancing in the original casts of some of his most iconic productions, and working with some of the company's most famous dancers. Winningly honest and intimate, Sills lets readers in on the secrets of a world that most people have never seen firsthand. She reveals mistakes she made, the unglamorous parts of tour life, jealousy among company members, and Balanchine's complex relationships with women. She talks about Balanchine's insistence on thinness in his dancers and how her own struggles with weight ended her dancing career. Now a professor of dance who has educated thousands of students on Balanchine's style and legacy, Sills reflects on the highs and lows of a career indelibly influenced by the bright lights of theater and by the man who shaped American ballet.Binding Type: Paperback

Very pretty
Style: Length 11 Inches
Seemingly good quality. Just wish it came in half sizes for example 10.5” would be the perfect size for me. 11” was too big, 10” a bit snug. I had to return both.

ABSOLUTELY LOVELY!!!!!!!
Color: B3: Gold Bar + Birthstone, Color: B3: Gold Bar + Birthstone
My fiancé and I lost our 3 month old baby boy. I thought long and hard and hunted through Amazon hoping to find something thoughtful to get him to comfort him and I saw these urn necklaces. I was a bit hesitant because they’re supposed to hold baby’s ashes and I wasn’t sure how he would feel about that but they arrived and we absolutely love them. There are two different chains so he will wear the thicker one and I’ll wear the thinner. The words are written perfectly, the stones are beautiful. It’s small enough that we never have to take them off and big enough to read the words clearly. It’s just the most beautiful and thoughtful gift I could ever give him. This product gets 10 stars!!!!!! Thank you to the company for giving us a gift that will keep our baby boy forever close to our hearts.

It was perfectly done!
Color: B2: Black Bar + Birthstone
Everything was perfect and nicely packaged. Included a wipe and a little funnel to put ashes in so it can go inside the necklace. Everything was done correctly. It's definitely a great product for the money you're using. The quality of the print was good. It's comfortable to wear as well. The detail I added were correct. It's a great weight as well.
