Blake Works II (The Barre Project) is created by one of the world’s foremost choreographers, William Forsythe, set to the music of James Blake. The work has been called love letters to dancers and to the art of ballet itself.
Evermore by Dwight Rhoden, presents styles ranging from ballet to ballroom to Broadway and is set to the music of Nat King Cole. Rhoden is artistic director of Complexions Contemporary Ballet and has worked with and created for some of the most diverse artists spanning ballet and contemporary dance.
