I honestly got emotional watching the Russian section from this angle. It was so clear from EVERYONE dancing in that section that they LOVED what they were doing. They put everything they had into performing it, and you could tell that all the rehearsal leading up to it allowed them to throw their entire selves into it while still maintaining perfection in their technique and timing.
My favorite art is the audible audience member going “wow” after every single minimally impressive moment. 😂😂 That, and the Drosselmeyer in the white suit (why?) that we referred to as “Jar Jar Binks” (because annoying and unnecessary).
