attended the Saturday evening performance for various reasons, the only difference in casting was the absence of Unity Phelan on Sunday. Since I witnessed the debut of Ashley Hod and Phelan in the same roles a while back, it would have been intriguing to watch the pair now in Agon. Divertimento from 'Le Baiser de la Fée' is on no account top drawer Balanchine; however, it is still an attractive and moving ballet. It should not be surprising that the De Luz-Fairchild performance earlier in the week was

paid much attention to the passing of time in the play. When I saw the baby in the final scene, I then realized Jo’s pregnancy had been progressing throughout the play.
