Portrait of a Ballerina
The joy and grace of dance has never been more celebrated than this season in Houston - as the MFA's Degas show, with the master's impressions of the art form, draws grateful crowds - and the Houston Ballet opens its new 'Nutcracker.' Here, a loving ode, with young members of the city company in holiday finery.
