CAN’T-MISS AFFAIR Journalist/filmmakers Leslie and Andrew Cockburn’s over-the-top rock’n’roll-themed extravaganza certainly fulfilled their promise that the ballet’s annual gala would retain its reputation as the season’s snazziest party for the arts-and-philanthropy set. GLAMROCK GLITZ Notable guests from business, media, diplomacy and the arts joined seldom-seen “Cave-dweller” types to drink, dine and dance to the music of two different bands in the Russian Embassy’s vast ballroom a er a performance by company members and students from TWB@THE ARC’s school.
