hit The presence of two grande dames of the French arts, Sylvie Guillem and Catherine Deneuve, together in the one room sent a frission of excitement through the crowd at the after-party for Sacred Monsters. Just about everyone wanted to get a closer look at the ballet dancer and the film star, both of whom enviably defy their age.
miss Guillem's performance with British choreographer Akram Khan drew praise for its intensity but not for its length. At only 75 minutes, some audience members felt they didn't get enough bang for their buck.RB
