One stage, three moods. Explosive energy. Deep resonance. Unstoppable drive. Feel the pulse of ballet now.

George Balanchine – Symphony in Three Movements

A rhythm that ignites the night.

In this 21-minute corker, no tutus – only leotards, no tiaras – only ponytails, and no story – only the bold propulsion of Stravinsky’s percussive music driving 32 dancers to an explosive conclusion.

Jae Man Joo – Auguries of Innocence (world premiere)

A rhythm that spins poetry into motion.

Step inside a poetic meditation on our connection to the natural and spiritual worlds. For this new work, Jae Man Joo draws inspiration from the poetry of William Blake and the music of Peteris Vasks – both rich with anguish, yearning and lyricism.

Micaela Taylor – Bow Out (world premiere)

A rhythm that won’t let you sit still.

The legendary Nicholas Brothers and Bill ‘Bojangles’ Robinson wowed the world in the 1930s with their impeccable style and seemingly impossible tap routines.
