I saw the second to last show of LWFC by ABT this summer, and it has become my favorite ballet for exactly the same reasons Ellie outlined in the beginning of the vid. Seeing the dancer's hard work and love for the art they perform always adds to the experience and love for ballet so thank you for continuing to share these videos
That was one of the best videos you guys have ever done. That video to your future self was so perfect. I can tell that you were able to really appreciate what you were doing and to soak it all up. I think you will be in many more productions, but there's nothing like that first experience. The first big professional break. However,... You're going to be on a lot of people's lists this winter when it comes to playing nutcracker! You might have to choose which Clara you want to be.😊
Congratulations Eliana! You did an amazing job. Your growth this last year has been so fun to watch. Wishing you many more opportunities in the future.
Congratulations, Ellianna! You did an amazing job playing the part of Esperanza in Like Water for Chocolate...happy you had the opportunity. You are a beautiful dancer, just like your sisters. 👏👏 Btw, I loved your message to your future self. It was so sweet and special. Thanks for sharing! 💗👍
Omg i wanted to cry i want to see the whole thing. This was amazing. I love that movie and you girls are perfect for the roles. Eeee im sorry im fangirling❤❤
@mlmj1994 right? 😂 I've read the whole LWFC synopsis and have seen enough clips to know what they're referencing. Just odd not to show those clips in this vlog to explain it. 🤷
What an AMAZING opportunity!! So happy for you Elliana!! I do have one thing to say though, be sure to put your heels down when jumping! We want to protect those achilles! You are such a beautiful dancer! Keep up the good work! -Greetings from Southwest Virginia
Well done Elliana - that looked AMAZING! No, I haven't seen 'Like Water for Chocolate', but I have seen - and absolutely LOVED his 'Alice's Adventures in Wonderland' and 'The Winter's Tale'.
I enjoyed seeing Like Water For Chocolate. You did a great job! I thought the both the dancing and acting was great. I could understand the whole story. It was such a good adaptation of the original story.
Congratulations Ellie, you did a wonderful and amazing job. Unfortunately I haven't seen Water for Chocolate yet because I live in Germany. But perhaps one day the ballet finds its way over the ocean to the Munich Opera House. This would be fantastic, because the story seams to be very interesting. Or I'll get to New York to see it at the MET, which would also be mindblowing. I can imagine that you are quite sad after the final curtain but I am also quite sure that you'll get other interesting offers to take part in. All my best wishes to you and your family!
Oh sweet Ellie. I know it’s hard for you right now, but think of this experience as a stepping stone for your future as a dancer! Who knows, you just might be doing the roles Savannah and Michelle have gotten to do! I would love to see this ballet one day! Christopher Wheeldon is definitely one of my favourite present day choreographers!
