It’s really going to happen this time . . . .

The H.H. Team 6 Ballet Activities Division (BAD) of lookouts around the world have been feeding Haglund reports of our Stella Abrera's activities in Manila as she prepares for her full length debut in Giselle. Between her hunts for dried mangoes and ube ice cream, she has been observed putting in significant rehearsal time with Ballet Philippines as the company prepares for its opening night of Giselle this coming Friday, September 19th.

After having to withdraw twice from her ABT Giselle debuts due to injury over the past decade, ABT hasn't given her another chance to dance the role that we all know she was destined to dance. They continually beat her up with countless secondary roles, but won't give us the opportunity to see her supreme artistry bloom as Giselle or Aurora or Odette/Odile. If anyone wonders why audiences are losing interest in ABT, you need look no further than its criminal waste of Stella Abrera.

    I would so much like to be there for her debut, Haglund! If anyone out there manages to get hold of some video clips, either of rehearsals or performance, please send them asap to Haglund, who, I’m sure, will post them for his numerous followers!

    Thanks, Angelica. Anyone who shoots Haglund video clips of Stella’s debut or dress rehearsal has an open invitation to sleep on Haglund’s couch (54 inches long) free should that person ever visit Manhattan. Complimentary cats included. We’ll throw in some ballet tickets, too. What else should we throw in?
