A very well balanced triple bill comprising two revivals and a world premiere gave ample opportunity for the dancers of Opera Ballet Vlaanderen to show off their versatility in Antwerp.

 Zurich’s new triple-bill ballet programme bridges the 20 and 21st centuries with choreography by three different contemporary masters: Jacopo Godani, Hans van Manen, and William Forsythe.

The company of ten is filled with very well trained dancers, mostly from Juilliard’s highly regarded dance program, and they are all quite good. 

Ivan Talijancic discusses L.A. Dance Project's New York debut, a Millepied - Peck - Forsythe mixed bill.

Famous as a choreographer and as the star of the award-winning film Black Swan, as well as being the husband of Natalie Portman, there is a weight of expectation on the work of Benjamin Millepied. He will take up the position of Director of Dance at Paris Opera Ballet in 2014, but his latest project, performing at Sadler’s Wells this week, attempts to break free from classical ballet tradition.

Si Trio et Quintett suscitent quelques interrogations, Enemy in the Figure est le clou de la soirée – mais il manque dans l'interprétation cette déflagration esthétique typique de Forsythe.

L.A. Dance Project, collectif fondé et dirigé par Benjamin Millepied, est de retour à Paris au Théâtre des Champs Elysées avec un programme néoclassique mêlant Martha Graham, William Forsythe, Justin Peck et Benjamin Millepied.
