Macho, moody, and whimsical, PNB's All Robbins program is a stand-up triple, if not a home run (at McCaw Hall through June 8; tickets: $20-$150).

Opening night's Fancy Free sparked and fizzed erratically; conductor Stewart Kershaw, swinging the baton sans panache, kept Bernstein's charged score sounding off-kilter.

We could die happy now. Seattlest went to Pacific Northwest Ballet’s “Valentine” performance last Friday. We wish we’d gone earlier, so we could tell you about it in time for you to go as well, since Sunday was the last performance. Ostensibly, we purchased the tickets because Valentine was billed as a more contemporary collection of dances from PNB, and we’re not much for the usual ballet stuff with the tutus and the tiaras and the traditional classical scores. We were most excited for a collection of duets choreographed by one of our favorite modern dancers, Twyla Tharp, set to a variety of Frank Sinatra songs. Good, solid romantic stuff.
