@funacting1 I hate to do this because I'm afraid I'll start an argument but I respectfully disagree. I think their poker faces add to the piece. I know that when I run into an ex I sort of put on a straight face to keep from embarrassing myself. I like this because its relateable for me.

I mean no disrespect, that's just my opinion. :)

I like the blank faces. I've a musical theatre background, and normally empty faces annoys me, but to me this is a song that's about confusion and not knowing what emotion is appropriate. It's a song about meeting someone and being full of feelings but keeping a straight face, and they capture the emotion through their movements, like dancers should. I think it works. And they move together astoundingly well.

[ClarityandEmry]

I completley understand the merits to the lack of facial emotion and why it works well with the dance, but no matter how emotional the movements, I connect better with emotionally engaged faces. Of course, I am extremely biased having done a great deal of musical theater dancing, where facial expressions are essential. So, really, it's a personal preference.

@sillyribbons It's probably pretty specific to your studio, but I'd assume they're learning the choreography rather than taking an actual pas de deux class like you'd take for ballet. If you know a male dancer who you'd like to work with, you could talk to your studio about taking private lessons to develop skills. However, modern duets are more specialized than ballet pas de deux, so you have to find a choreographer who really likes choreographing duets.
