A Day in the Life of NYCB's Gonzalo Garcia
Much of ballet’s magic is the otherworldly presence dancers have when they step onstage—it’s hard to imagine our favorite stars having lives outside the theater. But that’s what makes documentaries like “The Dancer,” a new short film by former Miami City Ballet dancer Ezra Hurwitz, so fascinating. During its six minutes, we follow New York City Ballet principal Gonzalo Garcia through his day. We meet his fuzzy cat inside his small NYC apartment, see his subway commute to Lincoln Center and even peek into the NYCB locker room.
And of course, there’s beautiful dancing, too.
