Passion, love, and death! From the moody love songs of singer/songwriter James Blake, to the sizzling strains of the electric violin, to one of the most profound pieces of dancer theater ever created, these dances will take you on an unforgettable journey through love and war.
Ballet West shows its strength and versatility to tackle bold new work and important revivals with the Utah Premiere of Blake Works I by one of the world’s most renown contemporary choreographers, William Forsythe. Red Angels is a passionately-charged work that highlights dancers’ athleticism, urged on by an electric violin soloist. Kurt Jooss’ 1932 antiwar masterpiece, The Green Table, shows us that ultimately, the only victor in war is Death.
