Peter Boal, Artistic Director of Pacific Northwest Ballet, has announced three promotions: Seth Orza (seen above in SLEEPING BEAUTY with ballerina Mara Vinson) has been promoted to Principal...
...Sarah Ricard Orza (above, in Balanchine's SERENADE) has been promoted to soloist...
...and Laura Gilbreath is also promoted to soloist. Her portrait above as well as the photos of Seth and Sarah are all by Angela Sterling.
When members of PNB appeared recently at the Guggenheim, Seth Orza seemed to me to to be dancing like a world-class principal danseur and so I am really happy to see his promotion announced. Sarah Ricard Orza (who is Seth's wife) made an especially fine impression when PNB danced at The Joyce earlier this year
Congratulations to the three dancers and please join me urging PNB to return to New York City as soon as possible.
