Another kind of springtime allergy
Craig Jarvis: One day last week, native New Yorker Robert Weiss, artistic director of Carolina Ballet, paused in the middle of an overheated studio to think through the choreography for a pair of dancers he was rehearsing.
Suddenly, he sounded irritated and snapped, “What is that noise?”
Outside a door that had been propped open, a warbler sang in the fresh North Carolina spring air.
“It’s a bird,” someone replied.
“It’s not a cell phone?” Weiss said, incredulous.
