  • Dancing Dolls, Flaming Birds and Evil Sorcerers: Suite en Blanc, Firebird, Coppelia

    January 7-28

    From the savvy Swanhilda saving her beloved Franz when he almost lost his life falling in love with a doll to Firebird, the enigmatic ballet that pivoted all of ballet’s future and jumpstarted Stravinsky’s career influencing the future of ballet & Jazz music. We’ll close with Suite en Blanc, Serge Lifar’s ballet, a scene of clean classical beauty choreographed during the German occupation.

  • Black White and Pink: Sleeping Beauty, Balanchine’s Black and White Ballets Agon, 4 Temperaments, Concerto Barocco.

    February 4-25

    Sleeping Beauty is considered the epitome of the classical style, the essence, the GOAT, the most crystalline. Meanwhile, Balanchine’s leotard ballets we (and still are in many ways) the most modern, void of story and character, filled with rhythm and poetry.
