No one was going home tonight — the judges’ scores will be added to viewers’ votes and scores for another dance next week. Then, at the end of Monday night’s program, someone will be sent home. First up was Brant Daugherty of “Pretty Little Liars,” dancing the cha-cha-cha with pro Peta Murgatroyd. He was terrific and won the judges over immediately. Head judge Len Goodman thought it was “fabulous,” and judge Bruno Tonioli said it was “hot stuff,” but Brant needs to keeping his timing going. Judge Carrie Ann Inaba said Brant made “one little boo-boo,” but he has lots of potential. Great start to Week 1.

While 1905 marked the beginning of widespread mass uprisings in Russia, it was inedible food that led to a showdown on the battleship Potemkin. Mutineers killed nearly half the ship’s officers. In Possokhov’s version, an Anarchist (Taras Domitro) rapes “freedom” (Feijoo). Then she kills him, and is swept into the protective arms of the Captain (Luke Ingham). So much for girl power. So much for the people’s rebellion. This melodramatic muddle underscores Possokhov’s serious conceptual limitations. If only he would stick to the dancing. The new work’s finest scene comes when a collection of sailors performs a ritual dance, part circle of aggression echoing “Boléro” and part Cossack bonding dance. It points to where Possokhov’s talents lie. However, it was Feijoo’s glorious dancing, Ingham’s silken partnering, Alexander V. Nichols’ elegant and powerful video triptych of ships, sea foam, sailors and warfare — plus the haunting score by Russian composer Ilya Demutsky — that were the ballet’s true heroes.
