no ballet content tonight cursed or otherwise because i fell asleep for two hours solid after work and therefore did not watch anything
please vote for what i should watch tomorrow of the tabs i currently have open (all of these are ballets i have not seen before)
later in the week i am probably going to watch some alt versions of ballets i HAVE seen before, most likely starting with rite of spring and firebird (i've only seen a really weird version of firebird before). and i'm thinking of like... taking a week to watch all the swan lakes on medici, all the nutcrackers, all the romeo and juliets, etc.
but in the meantime! new ballets! help me decide the order by voting

okay i watched the winter's tale ballet this evening and i really enjoyed it! really good costumes, lovely dancing, and i even managed to follow the plot (i googled it afterwards to find out what the story actually is bc the winter's tale is one of those shakespeares i don't know anything about except the bear, and i'd pretty much picked up on all the details with no prior context, which is impressive for ballet)
scores low on the batshittery front, mostly not batshit at all, but i had fun

ah shit the trouble with the ballets poll is i can't see the results until midnight tomorrow unless i vote in it myself and i will be starting whatever ballet i choose to watch at like. 10pm.
SOMEBODY LOOK AT IT AT 9.30PM TOMORROW AND TELL ME WHAT IT SAYS
