A Massive Congratulations to Miriam Miller

on her promotion to principal dancer at NYCB. We knew this outcome would take a good amount of time to be realized, and we fretted over whether the pandemic would stall or kill her chances. We're so happy to see how well she has been dancing and developing as an artist. Her recent Concerto Barocco debut sealed the deal for us. Brava!

    Hi, S.
    I don’t think that Miriam could improve any more by doing soloist roles or being a soloist who also has to occasionally cover corps work. Her potential is obvious and there is only one way to ignite it — that’s with a big load of principal work. Management may start casting her heavily the way they did with Unity Phelan who was brought up to speed pretty quickly.
