At the Harvard Dance Center tonight at 7:30 pm, the upcoming ballet opening next Thursday, A Midsummer Night's Dream, will be the focus of a dance talk.
Ballet master, Tony Randazzo and Boston Ballet School Faculty Member Jacqueline Cronsberg will lead the discussion, talking about Balanchine's approach to "narrative" dance. In other words, a story told through the art of dance.
The most memorable Balanchine performance I can remember seeing was Balanchine Martins Balanchine in December 2004, at the formerly known Wang Center. The Balanchine piece "Rubies" was just sparkling with life and innovation and beautiful artistry.
So I am pretty pumped to go see the show on opening night next Thursday February 8. As a Boston Ballet Subscriber, I can pick which shows I want to see, which seats I want to sit in and get discount benefits at the Boston Ballet store, several South End restaurants and am entitled to special events and pre-ticket sale information.
And the best part, as a student, every ticket I buy is $20 with the student plan I picked. It is a great Valentine's or birthday gift for your favorite dance lover.
