Director’s Choice October 13-15, 2011
Knight Theater
For Director’s Choice Artistic Director Jean-Pierre Bonnefoux chose three ballets: William Forsythe’s In the Middle, Somewhat Elevated, which Bonnefouxcalls a contemporary masterpiece; Mark Diamond’s steamy and sensuous Bolero, which Bonnefoux adds also has a “bit of humor;” and a new work by Sasha Janes, Rhapsodic Dances, which Bonnefoux says is a current take on a romantic, classical ballet.
Presented by Greg Ott Center for Physical Therapy & Sports Performance, with sponsorship by Deloitte Consulting LLP and Mayer Brown. |
