Aw, such a sweet tribute, Jolene! I’m so sad I never got to see her dance. By the way, I love the picture of her with Gonzalo too

Hi – I think you nailed it when you called the evening “bittersweet”. Thanks for commenting.

About the photos – I’m not aware of anyplace where it’s available publicly, sorry!

Jolene,

Thank you so much for this detailed and lovely review. I was there, too, and, as always, Tina was simply breathtaking in her artistry, technique and humanity. What a beautiful, bittersweet evening it was.

The photos in your review are also wonderful. How can I get (download) a copy of the Tchai pdd with Gonzalo and the gorgeous “Valentine” pose. They are treasures.

Please let me know.

Thanks.

Thanks JAD! It’s a pleasure to write them. Were you there to see her farewell performance? What’s your favorite Tina LeBlanc role?

Hi Jolene,
This is another great review from you. Throughout the years, Tina LeBlanc has inspired me to be a better dancer each and every day. I too will miss seeing her on the Opera House stage. This season is great in many ways. Thanks for all of your reviews.
