Never been a great fan of ballet. Men in tights and classical music ain't my cup of tea. Despite that, I volunteered for the Giselle in the Park performance organised by the Singapore Dance Theatre (SDT) down at the Fort Canning Park.
I have to admit, I was mesmerised by this graceful yet rather torturing form of art. Each and every movement, spins and turns are choreographed to bring the audience closer to the story and the emotions of the characters. The dancers, who moved with much grace, have to be on their toes most of the time. I really pity those feet.
Perhaps I should start cultivating my interests in ballet. =)
