In the Mirror’s review of The Bourgeois Gentilhomme (November 20), the review was worded in a way as to cause some confusion about performer Lejla Hadzimuratovic. Although Ms. Hadzimuratovic performs a belly dance in the production, she is an actress who dances as well as plays the piano. In the program, she is listed in the role of Princess Balaskya. There was also no intent by the Mirror to imply that Ms. Hadzimuratovic was unclothed during her performance. The Mirror regrets any confusion that may have resulted.
