“I love it. It’s breathtaking. ... I also loved the costumes of each of them and every one. ... The storytelling [is] beautiful in each of them.”

“[The dancers are] excellent; they’re superb. There couldn’t be anything better. It’s a long tradition of great artistry, so I’m delighted to be here.”

“That was very clever to put the animation [in the backdrop], and animated form, and then having the artists popping in and out of the stage from the backdrop is amazing. Very charming and very unique.”

“I think that you feel always uplifted. This is my second time being here. [I came back] because you feel great afterwards, you feel enlightened, and invigorated. So it’s delightful.”

“[The orchestra is] terrific. I think it always adds an element of spontaneity.”
