Performer: Laura Tisserand

Full of invention and originality, this up-to-date version of The Sleeping Beauty is entertaining and emotionally absorbing.

An assortment of oddments from the repertoire to honour seven departing PNB dancers.

Sumptuous costumes, brilliant colors, excellent dancers create a glorious show which is unfortunately too long for the material. 

A very fine performance, notable for the musicality which imbued each dancer’s presence and the excellent acting which kept the audience glued to the story.

Jean-Christophe Maillot’s Roméo et Juliette strips Shakespeare’s classic story of embellishment and leaves a timeless emotional journey. 

The Pacific Northwest Ballet's season opener captures different periods of neoclassical ballet with Christopher Wheeldon's Tide Harmonic, George Balanchine's Prodigal Son and Jerome Robbin's The Concert (or, The Perils of Everybody).
