Getting All In A Twist For “Bunheads”
A lot of hard-nosed critics are loving “Bunheads,” the new TV series starring Sutton Foster (pictured) as a dance instructor. Sarah Kaufman says: ‘That schlurping sound you hear is my heart, being hooked by a show I never thought I’d fall for.’ And James Wolcott says: ‘I don’t know whether Sutton Foster modeled her performance on Ginger Rogers but she brings a wisecracking, self-deprecating screwball comedienne attack to her role that’s blows away the chalk dust that so many associate with ballet. This is the antithesis of “Black Swan,” a rare treat of sanity and humor.’
