Description
Frederick Ashton's Birthday Offering, Kyle Abraham's Mercurial Son, and George Balanchine's Ballet Imperial share a program that spans neoclassical styles. The works draw from the past while moving into the present, from a radiant tribute to Russian Imperial style to Abraham's tradition-defying contemporary voice. Together, they offer a survey of how classical ballet's vocabulary evolves.
