“…this production, moderated by the Miami City Ballet Artistic Director Lourdes Lopez, will include discussion and film in addition to exquisite performances, making it a Spoleto-exclusive, don’t-miss event celebrating Robbins’ remarkable life and work.”
“Lopez does a stupendous job of keeping the flame of Balanchine alive but, as this program demonstrated, she also looks to the future and makes all the right choices in enriching the company’s repertory with the very best choreography of today.”
“Circles became straight lines, canons twirled to unison, out of nowhere, a dynamic series of turns came right down the middle of the stage. There was a playfulness in the childlike formations, hops and skips, but there was no subtlety in the demands of the piece.”
Miami City Ballet returns to The Music Center’s, Dorothy Chandler Pavilion this year, November 30 – December 2, 2018 with holiday favorite, George Balanchine’s The Nutcracker®.
The company’s final program this season brings back Apollo and La Valse, by St. Petersburg-bred and New York-consecrated George Balanchine, in conjunction with Alexei Ratmansky’s Concerto DSCH.
