JANE EYRE
October 16-27, 2019
Choreography: Cathy Marston | Music: Philip Feeney
Marston's adaptation of Charlotte Brontë's trailblazing novel is a "quietly enthralling classic" (The Guardian) that combines theater and dance to tell the coming-of-age story of Jane Eyre, one of literature's most iconic characters. After a difficult upbringing, Jane becomes the governess for the mysterious Mr. Rochester. With stirring choreography and an enthralling Victorian design, this avant-garde ballet breaks the mold of the traditional ballet heroine.
One of literature's most iconic heroine's comes to life.
Chicago Premiere
THE TIMES ARE RACING
February 12-23, 2020
Commedia
Choreography: © Christopher Wheeldon | Music: Igor Stravinsky
Taking inspiration from Stravinsky's Pulcinella Suite, Wheeldon's ballet is an "elegant piece, beautifully jointed and crafted..." (The Guaridan).
Mono Lisa
Choreography: Itzik Galili | Music: Thomas Höfs
Wiggling hips. Break-neck twists and turns. Feats of grand athleticism. Galili's incredible spin on the classical pas de deux evokes a daring game of cat and mouse-a fierce, dynamic dance of seduction.
Chicago Premiere
Bliss!
Choreography: Stephanie Martinez | Music: Igor Stravinsky
Award-winning, Chicago-based choreographer Martinez shares her newest work. Bliss! is set to Dumbarton Oaks Concerto, one of only two chamber concertos composed by Stravinsky.
The Sofa
Choreography: Itzik Galili | Music: Tom Waits
Described as a "broad, physical comedy" (Critical Dance), The Sofa takes shape as a love triangle run amok. Music by Grammy Award-winner Waits sets the tone for this comical take on gender, sexuality and relationships.
Chicago Premiere
The Times Are Racing
Choreography: Justin Peck | Music: Dan Deacon
Tony® Award-winning Peck brings one of his most "arresting and complex" (The New York Times) works. A "sneaker ballet," The Times Are Racing channels the power of protest and the process for creating change.
DON QUIXOTE
April 22-May 3, 2020
Choreography: Yuri Possokhov | Music: Ludwig Minkus
Bright and humorous, Possokhov's fresh interpretation of this revered ballet classic revolves around Don Quixote, an aging and eccentric nobleman, who imagines himself to be a valiant knight. With his trusted sidekick Sancho Panza in tow, Quixote sets out on a fateful journey, ready to breathe life into a world where windmills become monsters and adventure awaits beyond the horizon.
This layered multimedia production is a lighthearted ballet of bravery, fantasy, and love.
ADD ON THESE PERFORMANCES:
THE NUTCRACKER
November 30-December 29, 2019
Choreographer: © Christopher Wheeldon | Music: Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky
Wheeldon's acclaimed turn-of-the-century tale opens on Christmas Eve, 1892, mere months before the grand opening of the 1893 World's Fair, as young Marie and her mother prepare for a Christmas Eve potluck celebration. The magic of the season takes hold when a visit from the Great Impresario sets off a whirlwind journey of romance and adventure through a dreamlike World's Fair.
A must-see tradition boldly reimagined for a new generation.
