Happy Birthday, Wendy Whelan! May your day be filled with more grace than a Balanchine ballet and fewer stumbles than my attempts at dancing in the kitchen. Your performances have always been breathtaking—your elegance on stage makes even gravity jealous.From your iconic roles with New York City Ballet to captivating audiences worldwide through Morphoses/The Wheeldon Company, you've danced into our hearts effortlessly. Here's hoping this year brings you as much joy and applause as you've given us over the years—and may your pirouettes remain flawless while mine continue to resemble confused penguins spinning on ice. Cheers!
