Ballet director Smeared Dog Crap on a Critic’s Face

Newser: A German ballet director has lost his job after doing what he terms “truly an awful thing”: smearing his dog’s feces on the face of a dance critic. Marco Goecke, 50, on Thursday lost his job with the Hanover State Opera, though the opera house will continue to stage his “incomparable” work, per its artistic director.

Adds Laura Berman, “I do not believe in cancel culture.” The Nederlands Dans Theater appears even more forgiving, saying Goecke will remain on as associate choreographer. Goecke tells the New York Times he’d like there to be a larger conversation about what should be permissible in arts criticism, noting Wiebke Hüster had only reviewed him favorably twice in his entire career. Hüster doesn’t plan to ever review him again though. “He is not that relevant,” she says. more

    “What is it with Germans & Shiza?”

    …its more fun and more foreign looking if you write it with the German sharp S, eg. “ß”, which is merely an expression of two “s”s, which takes the German word for shit, “Scheisse”, and makes it more exotic looking, “Scheiße”.
