The New Alexander Petrovsky

If you follow the arts at all, you’ll soon be hearing all about this kid Daniil Simkin. He’s the newest, youngest member of the American Ballet Theatre and people are raving about him and touting him as the next Mikhail Baryshnikov. (I just looked that up and actually spelled it right on the first try.) Anyway, I’m going to write about him for Front Desk and was doing a bunch of research online when I came across this picture of him. Genius or not, I laughed out loud for a good five minutes.
