It’s funny how the onlookers in Everett True are always so happy that he’s beating a stranger. Like you know it’s ok because everyone approves. Reminds me of the Stan Kelly cartoons from the Onion.
It also reminds me of “and then everyone clapped”
They’re the audience surrogate for sure
Wow, ballet audiences were savage back then.
I think Everett wouldn’t like to sit in a modern audience. Hooting and hollering is the default now.
He would definitely be a grumpy old man complaining about everything if he’s alive today haha
I mean… he is grumpy old man in his time
Yeah did they really just sit passively back then? Maybe a quiet murmur if a particularly outstanding score is made?
