Talk:The Seven Deadly Sins (ballet chanté)

Bass

We ought to mention that the part of the mother is sung by a bass. I'm not sure where to get that into the current structure of the article, though. - Jmabel | Talk 07:49, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

Satire

It's odd that this article doesn't mention at all that the "sins" Anna are tempted by are seen as such only by her hypocritical family and her "prudent" alter ego. For instance, her "pride" consists in not wanting to work in a strip club, her "lust" is wanting to marry the one she loves rather than marrying for money, her "anger" is righteous anger against the injustice of Mr. Big. 213.184.192.82 10:46, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

I agree. I saw this at the Edinburgh Festival last year, and it's very clear that the virtue lies in Anna's inclination to commit each "sin", but she is held back from doing so. I've added a section on this. RichardNeill 03:20, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

Is it satire, or should it be called irony, (albeit not in the current hipster sense of the word)? —Robert Greer (talk) 13:16, 25 September 2008 (UTC)

Balanchine Foundation and NYCB

I have restored as footnotes the links to the Balanchine Foundation and NYCB and refined them by providing direct links to the appropriate webpages for Seven Deadly Sins. The downside to the latter is that websites get redesigned from time to time, and such links get broken in the process (my personal preferance is to list the homepage — which rarely changes — and trust the user to navigate; presumably anybody capable of editing Wikipedia is able to search a website or Google it.) — Robert Greer (talk) 00:10, 16 September 2008 (UTC)
