Ballet.

PARTYTIME Jaw-drop factors included: (1) tutu-clad male “ballet valets” doing a sidewalk pas de quatre while parking cars; (2) the hosts’ most impressive modern art collection; (3) icy mojitos and a Havana-style feast in two separate tents to honor Webre’s Cuban roots; and (4) the irresistible sounds of Sin Miedo, his fave Latin band, that kept dancers, trustees and other elasticallyinclined guests mambo- rhumba- and salsa-ing well into the not-so-silent night. THE CAST Kay Kendall, Bill and Dorothy McSweeny, Aldie Chapin, Bitsey Folger, Ize e Folger, Carol Feld and Winston Bao Lord.
