It's eye opening to me that Mr. Peck, until recently the golden boy of ballet choreography, is now being chastised by Ms. Kourlas for doing what all famous/successful choreographers have always done: develop a style, signature moves, formations, etc.  Look at the work of Graham, Balanchine, Taylor, Cunningham and on and on and you'll find exactly that.  This review says more to me about the particular biases of the critic than of the artist.
