Description
The program opens with Eva Stone's F O I L, returning for the first time since its 2019 premiere. An elegant piece told from Stone's storytelling lens, it explores different sides of the human experience. Christopher Wheeldon's This Bitter Earth is an emotionally striking pas de deux set to a remix of Dinah Washington's “This Bitter Earth” and Max Richter's “On the Nature of Daylight.” The evening closes with a world premiere by Kyle Abraham, marking his first time choreographing for PNB and bringing his avant-garde aesthetic.
