San Jose Strip Clubs: Darci Kistler spectacular in her Saratoga farewell
Saturday, July 11, 2009
SARATOGA SPRINGS New York City Ballet’s annual Gala was a bittersweet affair on Saturday night. The dancing was top shelf. So too where the four ballet selections. As the audience cheered, they also cried because the devoted Saratoga Performing Arts Center audience bid Darci Kistler adieu.
The beautiful ballerina, the last in a special line of George Balanchine’s chosen ones, danced her last dance here. And as the rains started to come down, Peter Martins, her husband and the company’s ballet master-in-chief, remarked “Mr. Balanchine opened the heavens to say good-bye.”
Fittingly, she danced one of Balanchine’s ballets, “Slaughter on Tenth Avenue.” She was spectacular. She captured the role of the stripper, in heels no less, with an exuberance and energy that honored her nearly 30-year career.
